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 hierarchy of types. So for Type values, dynamic_type is redefined
to just return Type.type.

convenience prefix operator to create a string from a value.
This permits usage of `$` as a prefix operator in a similar way both
inside and outside of constant strings: $x and "$x" will produce the

Set the environment variable corresponding to n to have the
value v.
This will overwrite the value of the environment variable, if
it is set already.
Unset the environment variable corresponding to n.
This will also return success (unit) if the variable was not
set anyway.Type Functions
