class Symbol

`final case class` Symbol
  `extends` java.lang.Object
  `with` scala.ScalaObject
  `with` scala.CaseClass

  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: `new Symbol("mysym")`. .
