Is the phrase "locator value" defined by the C standard? I've never heard of it before. I always knew the 'l' in "lvalue" as meaning "this expression can appear on the left-hand side of an assignment operation."

EDIT: Found the answer (thanks, draft C11 standard.)

Section 6.3.2.1 contains the definition of lvalue, and it does not use the phrase "locator value" at all. However if you want to use it as a reminder that modifiable lvalues can be assigned to, then more power to ya :-)

I can't help it - I'm a sucker for standardese.
