literal

A string, a number, or a date which directly represents a constant value. 'XYZ123', '1234' and '6/10/57' are examples of a string literal, a numeric literal and a date literal, respectively.

Used to identify values such as numbers and dates by means of a lexical representation. A literal may be the object of an RDF statement, but not the subject or the predicate.

The basic representation of any integer, floating point, or character value. For example, 3.0 is a double-precision floating point literal, and "a" is a character literal.

A token in a programming language such as a number or "string" that gives you an actual "value" instead of merely representing possible values as a "variable" does.
