About the equals sign symbol

The character is read as “equals” or “equal sign.” It is used in mathematics and logic to denote that the expressions on either side have the same value, and in programming as an assignment operator or a comparison operator. It also appears in informal writing, such as social media or messaging, where it can stand in for the word “equals” or separate a label from its value.
