Syntactically these are the same as the first two forms of atom - alphanumeric and graphic - but they are the names of primitive or program defined relations, functions or actions.
For example:
<> append
These were names we have to precede with a back-quote if we want to use them as atoms. Without a preceding back-quote they denote code values.
