OwnValues

OwnValues[x] gives a list of transformation rules corresponding to all ownvalues (direct values) defined for the symbol x.

Examples

Get the value assigned to a symbol:

x = 5;
OwnValues[x]
(* {HoldPattern[x] :> 5} *)

Compare with DownValues:

f = 10;         (* OwnValue *)
f[x_] := x^2;   (* DownValue *)
OwnValues[f]
(* {HoldPattern[f] :> 10} *)
