Dear Group
Recenly I wrote few functions generating unique
symbol names. Now I would like to put these
functions into package. The problem, however is
that symbols are generated in
the package context, so have long ugly names.
I would like that these symbols were generated into
global context.
The following seems work:
Begin[package context]
Begin [privte context]
functions without need of unique symbols
$Context="Global`"
functions that need unique symbols
f[a_]:=Unique[s]
End[]
But I believe there should be better solution.
If I try to change context locally it
don`t work:
f[a_]:=Block[{$Context="Global`"},Unique[s]]
Why?
