(*****************************************************************************)
(* The prefix is used to guarantee that we are not mixing different kind of
 * keys in the heap.
 * It just creates a new prefix every time its called.
 * The $ at the end of the prefix ensures that we don't have ambiguities if a key
 * happens to start with a digit.
