This is operators.cpp from chapter five of the exercise files. The assignment operator is used to copy a value from one object to another. So we can come down here and we can say x equals y. And then go ahead and print x. And when I build and run this, you'll notice well, we have our initial values of 5 and 47. So we have x equals 5 and x equals 47. And then we assign y to x using the assignment operator, and we have x equals 47. The assignment operator's also called the copy operator. And in this case, it copies the value from y into x. There's also the standard four function arithmetic operators. We can say x equals y plus x. And we'll get the sum, which should be what? 52, yeah, 52. Or we can say x equals y minus x. And we'll get 42. And we have…
