- <h3 class="section">Generalized Variables</h3> <p>A <em>generalized variable</em> or <em>place form</em> is one of the many places in Lisp memory where values can be stored using the <code>setf</code> macro (see <a href="setting-generalized-variables">Setting Generalized Variables</a>). The simplest place form is a regular Lisp variable. But the <small>CAR</small>s and <small>CDR</small>s of lists, elements of arrays, properties of symbols, and many other locations are also places where Lisp values get stored. </p> <p>Generalized variables are analogous to lvalues in the C language, where ‘<samp>x = a[i]</samp>’ gets an element from an array and ‘<samp>a[i] = x</samp>’ stores an element using the same notation. Just as certain forms like <code>a[i]</code> can be lvalues in C, there is a set of forms that can be generalized variables in Lisp. </p> <table class="menu" border="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr>
