Names

Names["string"] gives a list of the names of symbols which match the string.

Names["string", SpellingCorrection->True] includes names which match after spelling correction.

Names["string"] gives the same list of names as ?string.

Names returns a list of strings corresponding to the names of symbols.

The string can be a string pattern, with metacharacters such as * and @, as described in Section A.3.13.

Names["context`*"] lists all symbols in the specified context.

With SpellingCorrection -> True, Names includes names which differ in a small fraction of their characters from those specifically requested.

With IgnoreCase -> True or SpellingCorrection -> True, Names treats lower- and upper-case letters as equivalent when matching names.

Names[ ] lists all names in all contexts.

See Section 2.7.12.
