create a String from this instance. Unless redefined, `a.as_string` will
create `"instance[T]"` where `T` is the dynamic type of `a`
create `"instance[T]"` where `T` is the dynamic type of `a`
Get the dynamic type of this instance. For value instances `x`, this is
equal to `type_of x`, but for `x` with a `ref` type `x.dynamic_type` gives
the actual runtime type, while `type_of x` results in the static
compile-time type.
There is no dynamic type of a type instance since this would result in an
endless hierachy of types. So for Type values, dynamic_type is redefined
to just return Type.type.

This is an infix operator alias of map enabling piping code like
l := 1..10 | *10 | 300-
to obtain 290,280,270,...200
Note that map and therefore also this operator is lazy, so
_ := (1..10 | say)
will not print anything while
(1..10 | say).for_each _->unit
will print the elements since `for_each` is not lazy.
