## @deftypefn  {} {@var{varname} =} genvarname (@var{str})
## @deftypefnx {} {@var{varname} =} genvarname (@var{str}, @var{exclusions})
##
## This function is obsolete.  Use @code{matlab.lang.makeValidName} or
## @code{matlab.lang.makeUniqueStrings} instead.
##
## Create valid unique variable name(s) from @var{str}.
##
## If @var{str} is a cellstr, then a unique variable is created for each cell
## in @var{str}.
##
## @example
## @group
## genvarname (@{"foo", "foo"@})
##   @result{}
##      @{
##        [1,1] = foo
##        [1,2] = foo1
##      @}
## @end group
## @end example
##
## If @var{exclusions} is given, then the variable(s) will be unique to each
## other and to @var{exclusions} (@var{exclusions} may be either a string or a
## cellstr).
##
## @example
## @group
## x = 3.141;
## genvarname ("x", who ())
##   @result{} x1
## @end group
## @end example
##
## Note that the result is a char array or cell array of strings, not the
## variables themselves.  To define a variable, @code{eval()} can be used.
## The following trivial example sets @code{x} to 42.
##
## @example
## @group
## name = genvarname ("x");
## eval ([name " = 42"]);
##   @result{} x =  42
## @end group
## @end example
##
## This can be useful for creating unique struct field names.
##
## @example
## @group
## x = struct ();
## for i = 1:3
##   x.(genvarname ("a", fieldnames (x))) = i;
## endfor
##   @result{} x =
##      @{
##        a =  1
##        a1 =  2
##        a2 =  3
##      @}
## @end group
## @end example
##
## Since variable names may only contain letters, digits, and underscores,
## @code{genvarname} will replace any sequence of disallowed characters with
## an underscore.  Also, variables may not begin with a digit; in this case
## an @samp{x} is added before the variable name.
##
## Variable names beginning and ending with two underscores @qcode{"__"} are
## valid, but they are used internally by Octave and should generally be
## avoided; therefore, @code{genvarname} will not generate such names.
##
## @code{genvarname} will also ensure that returned names do not clash with
## keywords such as @qcode{"for"} and @qcode{"if"}.  A number will be
## appended if necessary.  Note, however, that this does @strong{not} include
## function names such as @qcode{"sin"}.  Such names should be included in
## @var{exclusions} if necessary.
## @seealso{matlab.lang.makeValidName, matlab.lang.makeUniqueStrings,
## namelengthmax, isvarname, iskeyword, exist, who, tempname, eval}
