Description
The functx:atomic-type function checks the types of one or more atomic values and returns their type names. It will only work for built-in atomic types; if the value has a user-defined atomic type, the function will return the built-in type upon which the user-defined type is based. If $values is the empty sequence, it will return "empty sequence".
