Function names - find all assigned names

Calling Sequence  names(typ)
Parameters
NameTypeDescription

typ {'assigned',type} 
Return Type  an expression sequence
Synopsis When no arguments are specified (or with "anything" as a typ), the names function returns all names, assigned or unassigned. When the argument typ is included, all names which are assigned a value of type typ are returned. The special typ value "assigned" will return only the names which are assigned. Be careful when using the all the names, that some names like break, next etc. may produce very unexpected results when evaluated.
