This class provides a simple way to get unique objects for equal strings.
Since symbols are interned, they can be compared using reference equality.
Instances of Symbol
can be created easily with Scala's built-in quote
mechanism.
For instance, the Scala term 'mysym
will
invoke the constructor of the Symbol
class in the following way:
Symbol("mysym")
.
