Microsoft® JScript™ = Operator | Language Reference Version 1

See Also

##### Description

> Assigns a value to a variable.

##### Syntax

> result = expression

> The = operator syntax has these parts:

> Part | Description
> result | Any variable.
> expression | Any numeric expression.

##### Remarks

> As the = operator behaves like other operators, expressions using it have a value in addition to assigning that value into variable. This means that you can chain assignment operators as follows:

> >     j = k = l = 0;

> j, k, and l equal zero after the example statement is executed.
