7.1 Introducing the Types Package

The Types package includes just one class, RWSymbol. This class encapsulates a string name in a reference-counted handle-body pattern. Therefore, several RWSymbols can reference one string name, making storage space smaller, name memory management easier, and name comparisons faster.
