Idiomatically determine all the characters that can be used for ''symbols''.
The word ''symbols'' is meant things like names of variables, procedures/programs/functions/subroutines/routines, statement labels, events or conditions, and in general, anything a computer programmer can choose to ''name'', but not being restricted to this list. ''Identifiers'' might be another name for ''symbols''.
The method should find the characters regardless of the hardware architecture that is being used (ASCII, EBCDIC, or other).
