Module wolfram_expr::symbol

Representation of Wolfram Language symbols.

This module provides four primary types:

• Symbol
• SymbolName
• Context
• RelativeContext

These types are used for storing a string value that has been validated to conform to the syntax of Wolfram Language symbols and contexts.

In addition to the previous types, which own their string value, types are provided that can be used to validate a borrowed &str value, without requiring another allocation:

• SymbolRef
• SymbolNameRef
• ContextRef
