FWIW, here is Common Lisp on "assigning": http://www.cs.cmu.edu/Groups/AI/html/cltl/clm/node79.html and on "binding": http://www.cs.cmu.edu/Groups/AI/html/cltl/clm/node83.html#SECTION001150000000000 000000 And there is this, from the book "Successful Lisp": http://psg.com/~dlamkins/sl/chapter03-06.html
