The original symbol as used in Algol-like languages was “:=”. While C
copies quite a few features from the Algol family, it made the
questionable decision to shorten the assignment operator to “=”,
ostensibly to save typing. Which meant they had to invent a different
symbol, “==”, to denote an equality comparison.
