What (who) is single assignment - definition

Static single-assignment form      
In compiler design, static single assignment form (often abbreviated as SSA form or simply SSA) is a property of an intermediate representation (IR), which requires that each variable be assigned exactly once, and every variable be defined before it is used. Existing variables in the original IR are split into versions, new variables typically indicated by the original name with a subscript in textbooks, so that every definition gets its own version.
single assignment language      
<language> Any programming language with the {single assignment} property. (2007-03-21)
