Assign is a special means for explicitly assigning a reference to an object to an lvn. The Assign command behaves similar to the Set command, with the exception that the final value of the expr to the right-hand side of the = sign must be of data type OREF and will not be coerced into a value of data type MVAL. (See notes under 7.1.1.1.2 for the results of the Assign command with various operands)
This special behavior allows the Assign command to transfer the value of data type OREF to the assignleft.
