C++ Error Lvalue Required As Left Operand Of Assignment

How about explaining what you expect the statement to do? It looks like nonsense to me.

Function As Left Operand

this is what compiler shows
tree.cpp: In member function ‘void redblacktree<T>::insert(T) [with T = int]’:
tree.cpp:187:12: instantiated from here
tree.cpp:103:9: error: lvalue required as left operand of assignment
tree.cpp:140:9: error: lvalue required as left operand of assignment

if u don't want 2 go thru' d code then kindly just tell when such compilation error occur.

Another line that raises red flags is this one:

Did you intend to use assignment?
