The printed representation of an object is the string produced
when the object is printed (with one of the print functions), this
will usually be very similar to the read syntax of the object
(see section Read Syntax).
Objects which do not have a read syntax do have a printed representation, it will normally be of the form,
#<relevant text>
where the "relevant text" is object-dependent and usually describes the object and its contents. The reader will signal an error if it encounters a description of an object in the format `#<...>'.
