There be dragons there, matey!
'Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs', a highly regarded
computer science textbook, doesn't introduce assignment until page 218,
chapter three. A section deals with 'The Cost of Introducing
Assignment', with a little detour into 'Sameness and change'.
'Set' is probably the go.
