# 2.3.2 Assignment Statements

An assignment statement consists of the left side, the assignment operator (=), and the right side. The left side (lvalue) must be a variable that can store a value. No constants or expressions are allowed. 

On the other hand, constants, variables, and expressions are allowed on the right side (rvalue).

```python
height=(500+margin)/2
```
