I don’t think that the standard ever uses the word instruction, except for generated code. The line
T &t = obj;is a declaration statement which is a definition; it’s a statement, but so are things likeusing std::string;. It may or may not result in executable code being generated, depending on a lot of things.Also (because of your title): there’s no assignment in
T &t = obj;.
