		 5  // Package types declares the data types and implements
		 6  // the algorithms for type-checking of Go packages. Use
		 7  // Config.Check to invoke the type checker for a package.
		 8  // Alternatively, create a new type checker with NewChecker
		 9  // and invoke it incrementally by calling Checker.Files.
		10  //
		11  // Type-checking consists of several interdependent phases:
		12  //
		13  // Name resolution maps each identifier (ast.Ident) in the program to the
		14  // language object (Object) it denotes.
		15  // Use Info.{Defs,Uses,Implicits} for the results of name resolution.
		16  //
		17  // Constant folding computes the exact constant value (constant.Value)
		18  // for every expression (ast.Expr) that is a compile-time constant.
		19  // Use Info.Types[expr].Value for the results of constant folding.
		20  //
		21  // Type inference computes the type (Type) of every expression (ast.Expr)
		22  // and checks for compliance with the language specification.
		23  // Use Info.Types[expr].Type for the results of type inference.
