The type Any used below is defined as:-record(any, {typecode, value}).where typecode is a TC tuple and value is an Erlang term of the type defined by the typecode field.

Typecode = TC
Value = term()
Result = Any
The create/0 function creates an empty any record and the create/2 function
creates an initialized record.
set_typecode(A, Typecode) -> Result
Types:
A = Any
Typecode = TC
Result = Any
This function sets the typecode of A and returns a new any record.
get_typecode(A) -> Result
Types:
A = Any
Result = TC
This function returns the typecode of A.
set_value(A, Value) -> Result
Types:
A = Any
