the value that was stored in the [symbol] object \, as well as printing
the value to the console.;
#X text 167 441 - a symbol to the right inlet is stored. (Note: symbol
atoms like "foo" will not be accepted.);
#X text 105 49 The [symbol] object stores a symbol (which is set either
by its creation argument or by the right inlet) and then outputs that
symbol when it receives a "bang" message or a new symbol in its left
inlet.;
#X text 168 391 - all other messages to the left inlet of symbol will
store and output the selector. E.g. \, a float will output the word
"float" \, a list will output "list" \, a pointer will output "pointer"
\, "foo bar" will output "foo" \, and so forth.;
#X text 168 350 - a symbol sent to the left inlet will be stored and
output. Symbol atoms (e.g. \, "foo") are accepted and given the "symbol"
selector.;
