Atom processing

This section provides predicates for atom processing.

atom_length/2

Length of an atom.

atom_length( +atom, ?integer )

atom_length(Atom, Length) is true if and only if the number of characters in the name of Atom is equal to Length. If Length is not instantiated, atom_length will calculate the length of Atom's name.

atom_concat/3

Concatenate characters.

atom_concat( ?atom, ?atom, +atom )
atom_concat( +atom, +atom, -atom )

atom_concat(Start, End, Whole) is true if and only if Whole is the atom obtained by adding the characters of End at the end of Start. If Whole is the only argument instantiated, atom_concat/3 will obtain all possible decompositions of it.
