```
java.lang.String shortName
```
    Short name representing the node that can be used for debugging.
    
    Returns:
    
    the short name
    
    Default:
    
    ""
- - cost
```
NodeCost cost
```
    Provides a rough estimate for the cost of the annotated Node. This estimate can be used by runtime systems or guest languages to implement heuristics based on Truffle ASTs.

- - description
```
java.lang.String description
```
    A human readable explanation of the purpose of the annotated Node. Can be used e.g. for debugging or visualization purposes.
    
    Returns:
    
    the description
    
    Default:
    
    ""
- - language
```
java.lang.String language
```
    A description, providing a user-readable explanation of the source language of the annotated Node. Can be used e.g. for debugging or visualization purposes. Typically this information is set only in an abstract base node for the language implementation.
    
    Returns:
