// Package atom provides integer codes (also known as atoms) for a fixed set of
// frequently occurring HTML strings: tag names and attribute keys such as "p"
// and "id".
//
// Sharing an atom's name between all elements with the same tag can result in
// fewer string allocations when tokenizing and parsing HTML. Integer
// comparisons are also generally faster than string comparisons.
//
// The value of an atom's particular code is not guaranteed to stay the same
// between versions of this package. Neither is any ordering guaranteed:
// whether atom.H1 < atom.H2 may also change. The codes are not guaranteed to
// be dense. The only guarantees are that e.g. looking up "div" will yield
// atom.Div, calling atom.Div.String will return "div", and atom.Div != 0.
