what does == stand for??

it is a comparison operator, you use it when you want to check if two expressions are equal. for example:
if a==5:
print("a is 5")
this way, you are saying: only if a equals 5 output to screen text "a is 5". the reason there is two equals symbols is to make it different from assignment. for example:
a=5
means that you want to assign value 5 to variable a.

== is used to test equality, = is used for assignment. e.g.
x = 5
if x == 5:
print("five")
