Mathematica also has an === operator. And :=.

It's also very language specific, like Pascal/Delphi also have ":=" for assignments and "=" for comparison, etc

That makes much more sense than the other way.

What does the walrus operator do?

I think it's called 'delayed assignment'. So it is almost like =, but you can use arguments to define functions, f[a_]:=a+2.
