In programming languages, name binding is the association of values with identifiers. An identifier bound to a value is said to reference that value. Since computers themselves have no notion of identifiers, there is no binding at the machine language level — name binding is an abstraction provided by programming languages. Binding is intimately connected with scoping, as scope determines when binding occurs.

- In programming languages, name binding is the association of values with identifiers. An identifier bound to a value is said to reference that value. Since computers themselves have no notion of identifiers, there is no binding at the machine language level — name binding is an abstraction provided by programming languages. Binding is intimately connected with scoping, as scope determines when binding occurs. Use of an identifier id in a context that establishes a binding for id is called a binding (or defining) occurrence. In all other occurrences (e.g. , in expressions, assignments, and subprogram calls), an identifier stands for what it is bound to; such occurrences are called applied occurrences.
