IndetSymbols    --    the names of the indeterminates in a PolyRing


Syntax 
IndetSymbols(P: RING): RECORD

Description
This function returns the list of the symbols in a polynomial ring. A symbol is a record with head (as IndetName ) and indices (as IndetSubscripts )

Example 
/**/  use R ::= QQ[x,y,z];
/**/  indent(IndetSymbols(R));
[
  record[head := "x", indices := []],
  record[head := "y", indices := []],
  record[head := "z", indices := []]
]

/**/  use R ::= QQ[a, x[1..3]];
/**/  indent(IndetSymbols(R));
[
  record[head := "a", indices := []],
  record[head := "x", indices := [1]],
  record[head := "x", indices := [2]],
  record[head := "x", indices := [3]]
]
