What does the @ symbol before a variable name mean in C#?

I understand that the @ symbol can be used before a string literal to change how the compiler parses the string. But what does it mean when a variable name is prefixed with the @ symbol?

The @ symbol allows you to use reserved word. For example:

The above works, when the below wouldn't:



int class = 15;
