请教各位大神关于skill中symbol的问题

在SKILL中，symbol到底是一个什么样的存在？
这里的symbol不是schematic design里的device symbol，是指symbol这种变量类型。

我找到了以下关于symbol的描述内容，但是不是很理解，希望哪位大神详细解释一下。
In SKILL，the default namespace is the namespace that is opened at the start of the SKILL interpreter. The symbols from the default namespace can be referenced with their full names, such as  IL:::<symbol_name> or just by their names such as <symbolname> since there is no way to change the current namespace.

A SKILL programmer often uses the same name for different p
purposes when working on a large project with different programmers.Usually this problem is solved by using naming conventions or adding prefixes to function names, such as leCreateRect,dbCreateRect,rodCreateRect,and geCrerateRect. SKILL provides a language mechanism called namespace to separate these symbols, so that a symbol with the same name can exist in several namespaces.

symbol可以理解为C语言中的指针
