Baloney. The majority of all software in use right now is Cobol. Cobol
doesn't use "=" at all. On the strength of Cobol alone, "=" assignment
is in the minority. Add to that all the code in Delphi (heavily used
in application development), Lisp-based funtional langauges (almost
universal in AI applications), Modula-based languages (heavily used in
the auto industry), VHDL (heavily used in the chip design biz), and
APL (a sentimental favorite of mathematicians). Perhaps then you will
begin to see that you are just looking at one niche in the software
industry who's main claim to fame is that you happen to live in it.
