Module introspect
This package provides introspection into the interpreter. Introspection allows finding out what modules have been imported and what symbols that those modules hold. Note that the api that this package exports is currently limited.
One caveat with introspection is that the interpreter does not automatically load all symbols from foreign libraries. This mechanism (dynaload) means that introspecting a foreign library may not include all of the symbols inside of it. Introspection does not provide any means of finding symbols that are not loaded.

| EnumEntry | This is a foreign class that wraps over an enum. |
| FunctionEntry | This is a foreign class that wraps over a toplevel function of a package. |
| MethodEntry | This is a foreign class that wraps over a class or enum method. |
| ModuleEntry | This is a foreign class that wraps over a module. |
| ParameterEntry | This is a native class representing a definition parameter. |
| PropertyEntry | This is a foreign class that wraps over a class property. |
| TypeEntry | This is a foreign class that wraps over a type. |
| VarEntry | This is a foreign class that wraps over a var. |
| VariantEntry | This is a foreign class that wraps over an enum variant. |
Functions
define class_name(value: A): String
Return the class name of the value given.
If the value given is a variant, this returns the name of the variant.
define main_module: ModuleEntry
Returns the first module loaded.
define module_list: List[ModuleEntry]
Return all modules inside of the interpreter. This includes registered
modules and modules in the interpreter's prelude. In most cases,
main_module should be used instead.
