// Define a builtin variable.
//
//   name is the name of the variable, unquoted.
//
//   defn is the initial value for the variable.
//
//   protect is a flag that says whether it should be possible to give
//     the variable a new value.
//
//   eternal is a flag that says whether it should be possible to
//     clear the variable.  Most builtin variables are eternal, and
//     cannot be cleared.
//
//   chg_fcn is a pointer to a function that should be called whenever
//     this variable is given a new value.  It can be 0 if there is no
//     function to call.  See also the code in user-prefs.cc.
//
//   doc is the simple help text for this variable.

// Define a builtin constant `name' (which may be redefined, but will
// retain its original value when cleared) and also an alias to it
// called `__name__' (which may not be redefined).

#define DEFCONST(name, defn, doc) \
  DEFCONST_INTERNAL (name, defn, doc)

// This one can be used when `name' cannot be used directly (if it is
// already defined as a macro).  In that case, name is already a
// quoted string, and the name of the structure has to be passed too.

#define DEFCONSTX(name, sname, defn, doc) \
  DEFCONSTX_INTERNAL (name, sname, defn, doc)

// Define a builtin function.
//
//   name is the name of the function, unqouted.
//
//   args_name is the name of the octave_value_list variable used to pass
//     the argument list to this function.
//
//   nargout_name is the name of the int variable used to pass the
//     number of output arguments this function is expected to produce.
//
//   doc is the simple help text for the function.

#define DEFUN(name, args_name, nargout_name, doc) \
  DEFUN_INTERNAL (name, args_name, nargout_name, false, doc)

// Define a builtin text-style function.
//
// This is like DEFUN, except that it defines a function that can be
// called from the Octave language without using parenthesis to
// surround the arguments). 

#define DEFUN_TEXT(name, args_name, nargout_name, doc) \
  DEFUN_INTERNAL (name, args_name, nargout_name, true, doc)

// Define a mapper function.
//
//   name is the name of the function, unquoqted.
//
//   ch_map is a pointer to a function that should be called for
//     integer arguments that are expected to create integer results.
//     (It's a kluge to handle character mappers like isalpha.)
//
//   d_b_map is a pointer to a function that should be called for real
//     arguments that are expected to create bool results.
//
//   c_b_map is a pointer to a function that should be called for
//     complex arguments that are expected to create bool results.
//
//   d_d_map is a pointer to a function that should be called for real
//     arguments that are expected to create real results.
//
//   d_c_map is a pointer to a function that should be called for real
//     arguments that are expected to create complex results.
//
//   c_c_map is a pointer to a function that should be called for
//     complex arguments that are expected to create complex results.
//
//   lo is the lower bound of the range for which real arguments can
//     become complex.  (e.g., lo == -Inf for sqrt).
//
//   hi is the upper bound of the range for which real arguments can
//     become complex.  (e.g., hi == 0 for sqrt).
//
//   can_ret_cmplx_for_real is a flag that says whether this function
//     can create a complex number given a real-valued  argument
//     (e.g., sqrt (-1)).
//
//   doc is the simple help text for the function.
