Description

This class is used as part of the implementation of indexed variables. Objects of this class contain the values of the indexed variables that share the same base. 
i1 : p_1 = a

o1 = a

o1 : Symbol
 
i2 : p_2 = b

o2 = b

o2 : Symbol
 
i3 : p

o3 = p

o3 : IndexedVariableTable
 
i4 : peek p

o4 = IndexedVariableTable{1 => a      }
                          2 => b
                          symbol$ => p
