Every variable is a memory space defined by four main properties: address, datatype, name and value. When you use assignment operator it locates value to the right of = sign into the memory space which can be accessed by the name (or pointer) to the left of it When it comes to object-oriented programming you will be able to create your own data types and every instance (again memory space) of that class is an object

You need the assignment operator to assign a ( new ) value to a variable. An object is an instance of a class or a struct. You use objects to encapsulate data and behaviour that operates on this data. It's called objectoriented programming. e.g. You have a class Person, and then you create an instance of the class. Like that: class Person{ public: string name; } int main() { //create a Person Person spiderman; /*then you use the assignment operator to assign a value*/ spidername.name = "Peter Parker"; } It's not the best example but I hope you get an idea for what these things are used for.

assignment operators- used for storing values onto variables. objects - instance of a class ,used when you want to create different elements with the same properties but different values.
