Named and Unnamed Data Objects
With regard to the symbolic addressability, you can distinguish between named and unnamed data objects:
- Variables, text symbols, and constants are named data objects and as such can be addressed symbolically by name regardless of the value.
- Literals represent themselves, i.e. they are fully defined as unnamed data objects by their value.
