In case it's not clear, there are two single quotes there,
not a double quote. The '' tells Maxima to give the following
expression an extra evaluation.
Ordinarily the rhs of a function definition is not evaluated
(it is not even simplified). The '' causes Maxima to evaluate
the rhs.
Hope this helps,
