Author: Joost Nijhuis <>

This library has some value classes which represent a PHP type. These value classes can be constructed based on the PHP type name or based on a value. There are 2 pseudo type classes: `Jojo1981\PhpTypes\MixedType` and `Jojo1981\PhpTypes\MultiType` which will function as composite. Also, an abstract factory class is included: `Jojo1981\PhpTypes\AbstractType`.

The following types are supported, with their aliases:

- array
- bool (boolean)
- callable (callback)
- class
- float (number, real, double)
- int (integer)
- iterable
- null
- object
- resource
- string (text)
- void

Pseudo types:

- mixed
- multi
