Is there a standard way for generating dummy variables that must be
unique? I am thinking of something akin to Common Lisp's GENSYM or
Mathematica's Unique[].
I note things like INTEGRATION_CONSTANT_COUNTER etc. that I guess are
intended for this purpose, but grepping around seems to indicate that
this is used only in the underlying Lisp rather than in Maxima code.
Thanks in advance, as well as for all the help I already received
here,
Albert.
P.S.: I am on the list, so there is no need to send me a copy.
