Identifier
Any text string used as a label, such as the name of a procedure or a variable in a program or the name attached to a hard disk or floppy disk.
An element of an expression that refers to the value of a field, control, or property.
A distinguishing label assigned to data entities.
A symbolic name used in a program and defined by the programmer. Most identifiers stand for variables (see VARIABLE); however, some languages allow the use of identifiers to represent constants, so that the value of a particular constant, wherever it occurs in the program, can be changed by changing the statement that defines the identifier
