Modules
Maple procedures associate a sequence of commands with a single command.
The module, a more complex programming structure, allows you to associate
related procedures and data.
A key feature of modules is that they export variables. This means that the
variables are available outside the module in which they are created. Most
Maple packages are implemented as modules. The package commands are
exports of the module.
