Maxima Function
declare_translated (f_1, f_2, ...)
When translating a file of Maxima code
to Lisp, it is important for the translator to know which functions it
sees in the file are to be called as translated or compiled functions,
and which ones are just Maxima functions or undefined. Putting this
declaration at the top of the file, lets it know that although a symbol
does which does not yet have a Lisp function value, will have one at
call time. (MFUNCTION-CALL fn arg1 arg2 ...)
is generated when
the translator does not know fn
is going to be a Lisp function.
