In the section «Initializers» of the C++ Standard in the grammar that describes the term initializer there are the following lines

 

expr-or-braced-init-list:

expression

braced-init-list

 

But nowhere in the grammar there is a reference to this term.

 

It is unclear why is it present here and how is it related to the term initializer?

 

With best regards
