description: 'A collection of enum bindings that specify how a slot can be bound

LinkML provides enums to allow string values to be restricted to one of a set
of permissible values (specified statically or dynamically).
Enum bindings allow enums to be bound to any object, including complex nested
objects. For example, given a (generic) class Concept with slots id and label,
it may be desirable to restrict the values the id takes on in a given context.
For example, a HumanSample class may have a slot for representing sample site,
with a range of concept, but the values of that slot may be restricted to concepts
from a particular branch of an anatomy ontology.'

of possible values in every serialization of the model.'

description: 'Used on a slot that stores the string serialization of the containing

We call the slot with the serialization the s-slot, the slots used in the {}s
are v-slots. If both s-slots and v-slots are populated on an object then the
value of the s-slot should correspond to the expansion.
Implementations of frameworks may choose to use this property to either (a)
PARSE: implement automated normalizations by parsing denormalized strings into
complex objects (b) GENERARE: implement automated to_string labeling of complex
objects
For example, a Measurement class may have 3 fields: unit, value, and string_value.
The string_value slot may have a string_serialization of {value}{unit} such
that if unit=cm and value=2, the value of string_value shouldd be 2cm'
