because it's =>, all operators which have a = last (wth the sole exception of ==) is a short hand assignment operator, so a <= b is the same as a:= a < b. Just remember += and remember all operators that have an equal sign in the same position (except ==)·is an assignment operator.

That is an assignment operator. You want "=>", not ">=". See p250 "Operators" in the manual.

Thanks a lot.
I guess SPIN is just different from PC programming languages like C or Prolog.
