Note: Strictly speaking, it's preferable to use "==" when comparing integers as seen in this example. While the "=" sign will work as a comparison in most cases, technically it should be used for assignment, i.e. a = 3 when a is assigned the value of 3, as contrasted with a == 3, where the value of a is being compared with 3. FB will flag a warning when "==" is used to compare two single, doubles or floats since comparing real numbers can be inaccurate.
