Take a look at two equations...
a) x = y
b) x == y
Equation a--using the assignment opeartor--sets x to y and the result of the equation is new value of x. Equation b--using the comparison operator--checks if x is the same as y and, if so, the value is 1, if so, else it's 0.
Observe this while loop:
while (x! = 4) { }
If #strict is in effect, that while loop will never end. Why? Let's think about what while does. It loops while its contents evalutes to a non-zero value. Since x! is being continually set to 4, and 4 is non-zero, that will loop forever.
Hope that helps.
