   Packages provide a way of grouping types and packages together, which can be useful for understanding and managing a model. A package cannot contain itself.

   Containment of packages and types in packages uses the same notation as for Constructs::Packages with the omission of those aspects of the notation that cannot be represented by the Basic model.
