Where is the difference between Edition > assign profile... and edit > convert to profile?

I ' v saw a lot of youtube videos and video2brain or lynda.com and I didin't clearified the difference between Edition > assign profile... and edit > convert to profile.

On Photoshop Cs6, where is the difference between Edition > assign profile... and edit > convert to profile. With Edition > assign the profile changes the visual appearance of the colors, but the color values remains the same. Assign profile form a profile to a photoshop document so that the profile can travel with the document. Edit > convert to profile changes the values of colors in the document to match the profile, so the color values are shifted. When I do use edit it > convert to profile and edit > Assign profile... command in Photoshop within a document? Can someone explain to me?

Nice day!

Use Convert to profile if you want to change an image from one color space to another, for example when you worked on a picture in AdobeRGB but want to use the image on the web to convert to sRGB may be a good idea. Also when work you in RGB and will have to spend on CMYK images for a specific printing process.

Useful application to assign the profile is generally limited, for example if you get and change an image not profiled (or clearly wrong profiled) it make sense to incorporate the profile so that the later display and editing can proceed in the same way regardless of the workspace.
