Visual Studio 2017 - Go To Member vs. Go To Symbol

Can I get a quick reference on the types of results that will be returned by these commands? It is not obvious what Go to Symbol actually searches over.

Go To Type = hits classes, interfaces, structs, enums and delegates.

Go To Member = hits member variables, methods, properties, and consts (so, anything in a class).

Go To Symbol = either types or members.

You can also use Go to All - the default when entering ctrl + ,. This hit files, types, members, and even line numbers. For further reading, see the docs.
