You are trying to assign to a sequence of sums.

In the help page for assign it says that you can assign to names or functions, where 'function' means an unevalated function call, like f(8).

It is not clear what you want. What do mean by "assigning an equation"? If you want to assign each equation to an indexed variable, then why not do so directly in a do loop:

for i to 3 do
  eq[i] := a[i] = b[i];
end do:
