- <h1 class="section">The flavor Function</h1> <p>The <code>flavor</code> function, like the <code>origin</code> function, does not operate on the values of variables but rather it tells you something <em>about</em> a variable. Specifically, it tells you the flavor of a variable (see <a href="flavors">The Two Flavors of Variables</a>). </p> <p>The syntax of the <code>flavor</code> function is: </p> <div class="example"> <pre class="example">$(flavor <var>variable</var>)
-</pre>
-</div> <p>Note that <var>variable</var> is the <em>name</em> of a variable to inquire about, not a <em>reference</em> to that variable. Therefore you would not normally use a ‘<samp>$</samp>’ or parentheses when writing it. (You can, however, use a variable reference in the name if you want the name not to be a constant.) </p> <p>The result of this function is a string that identifies the flavor of the variable <var>variable</var>: </p> <dl compact> <dt id="undefined">‘<samp>undefined</samp>’</dt> <dd> <p>if <var>variable</var> was never defined. </p> </dd> <dt id="recursive">‘<samp>recursive</samp>’</dt> <dd> <p>if <var>variable</var> is a recursively expanded variable. </p> </dd> <dt id="simple">‘<samp>simple</samp>’</dt> <dd> <p>if <var>variable</var> is a simply expanded variable. </p> </dd> </dl><div class="_attribution">
