| It is synonymous with ‘<samp><span class="samp">.set</span></samp>’; see <a href="Set.html#Set"><code>.set</code></a>. |

| <p>The syntax for <code>equ</code> on the HPPA is |
| ‘<samp><var>symbol</var><span class="samp"> .equ </span><var>expression</var></samp>’. |
| |
| <p>The syntax for <code>equ</code> on the Z80 is |
| ‘<samp><var>symbol</var><span class="samp"> equ </span><var>expression</var></samp>’. |
| On the Z80 it is an error if <var>symbol</var> is already defined, |
| but the symbol is not protected from later redefinition. |
