Variable name which is the value of the expression. Since the expression is either just a variable identifier or it is an assignment to a variable, there is always a variable which is the subject of the expression. All other forms of expression become temporary variables which are instead referenced by a VarSnippet.
Returns:the name of the variable which is the subject of the expression.
