name(?Atomnumber, ?List)

   Succeeds if List is the corresponding list of ASCII codes for the atom or
number Atomnumber.



Arguments
   Atomnumber          Atom, number or variable.
   List                List of integers (each in the range 1 to 127) and/or                variables, or else a variable.

Type
   Obsolete

Description
   If Atomnumber is an atom or a number, unifies List with the list of its
   corresponding ASCII codes.  Real numbers can be any length in decimal
   format, though fractions are evaluated to 6 decimal places.  The codes
   are of each character of the atom, or of each digit (or decimal point)
   of the number.


   If List is instantiated, unifies Atomnumber with the atom or number
   corresponding to this list of ASCII integers.




Modes and Determinism
   name(+, -) is det
   name(-, +) is det

Exceptions
     4 --- Neither Atomnumber nor List are ground.
     5 --- Atomnumber is instantiated, but not to an atom or a number.
     5 --- List is instantiated, but not to a list.
     6 --- List is a list containing an integer outside the range 1 to    127.

Examples
   
   Success:
   name(atom,[97,116,111,109]).
   name(atom,[X,116|T]).        (gives X=97,T=[111,109]).
   name(/,[47]).
   name(10,[49,48]).
   name(20.0,[50,48,46,48]).
   name(2,[50]).
   name(+2,L).                  (gives L=[50]).
   name(-2,L).                  (gives L=[45,50]).
   name('1',[0'1]).
   X is 1/3, name(X,Y).         % X unifies with 0.333333
   (gives Y=[48,46,51,51,51,51,51,51]).
   Fail:
   name(atom,[98,116,111,109]).
   name('1',B), name(C,B), C='1'. % 1 does not unify with '1'.
   name(1.0,[0'1,0'.,0'0,0'0]).   % 1.0 is not 1.00
   Error:
   name(AN,[1,M]).     (Error 4).
   name(AN,L).         (Error 4).
   name(f(1,2),L).     (Error 5).
   name(AN,[128]).     (Error 6).
   name(AN,[0]).       (Error 6).
