(** This module is about the computation of an approximation of the
    head symbol of defined constants and local definitions; it
    provides the function to compute the head symbols and a table to
    store the heads *)

(** [declared_head] computes and registers the head symbol of a
   possibly evaluable constant or variable *)

val declare_head : evaluable_global_reference -> unit

(** [is_rigid] tells if some term is known to ultimately reduce to a term
    with a rigid head symbol *)
