#### Compound Type Specifier Syntax::

(`member`{{object}*})

#### Compound Type Specifier Arguments::

object—an object.

#### Compound Type Specifier Description::

This denotes the set containing the named objects. An object is of this type if and only if it is eql to one of the specified objects.

The type specifiers `(member)` and nil are equivalent. * can be among the objects, but if so it denotes itself (the symbol *) and does not represent an unspecified value. The symbol member is not valid as a type specifier; and, specifically, it is not an abbreviation for either `(member)` or `(member *)`.
