i think he means anonymous array. and there is no such thing as a named
list. it is called an array and it is not a list.

it is simple, you have named arrays, anonymous arrays and lists of
values. a list of values only exists in an list/array context. otherwise
it is a sequence of , separated expressions whose value is the last
evaluated expression.
