An Atom can contain simple primitive types like integers, +floating point numbers, and strings; as well as structured data like lists and +dictionary-like <q>Objects</q>. Since Atoms are POD, they can be easily copied +(for example, with `memcpy()`) anywhere and are suitable for use in real-time +code. + +Every atom starts with an LV2_Atom header, followed by the contents.
