Vector array not working

[human]

Hi guys, im having trouble with my code. Im trying to search within the vector for the int checker. The error Im getting is
error C3892: 'iter' : you cannot assign to a variable that is const

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <vector>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
int numbers=10, element, checker;
vector<int> group;
int count = 0;
vector<int>:: const_iterator iter;

while (count != numbers)
{
count++;
cout << "Enter numbers: ";
cin >> element;
group.push_back(element);
}

cout << "Please enter a number to search for within the array: ";
cin >> checker;

for (iter = group.begin(); iter != group.end(); ++iter)

if (*iter = checker)
cout << "Your number is in the array";
else
cout << "Your number is not in the array";


system("pause");
return 0;
}

The equality operator is ==.
Note that there is std::find.

count is redundant, the vector already keeps track of its size:

while (group.size()<numbers)

thanks for your help! I needed to use the equality operator, also changed my code a bit. Thank you.
