The type "atom"[1], is described in "Core Language" as follows:

> An atom can hold a single floating point numeric value, or an integer

I don't know why it isn't called "number", but it exists.

The page on atom also mentions:

> It can also hold a raw pointer, such as allocated memory or a call_back address, but that is typically only used when interfacing to external code in a .dll or .so file.

You're right, I missed that.

But that still leaves the ASCII tree diagram agreeing with the sentence "Phix has just five builtin data types:" while showing (and describing, in the following bullet point list) five data types that don't include "number" or a floating-point type.

So what's left is a minor but consistently repeated error in the doc, on the "Core Language" page.
