Question: Assignment by address versus by value

I initialized a variable name using another variable name and := . I thought that Maple would assign the value, but I soon learned by debug that the address was assigned. This led to temporary problems.

 

Where can I learn the rules that Maple follows for assignment by value or address ?? Do I always have to initialize with a real number, like 0, to be safe ??

Thanks.
