Class CodedText

Documentation:

A Text in a human language whose meaning is captured as concept in a formal terminology. Since CodedText is a subtype of Text, it can be used in place of it, effectively allowing the type Text to mean a text that may optionally be coded. A common use is to record the coded version of a verbatim text (a text originally selected or entered by a human).
