of ksa:
> (next-class-instance-number 'ksa) 8 >
Change the class of unit instance hyp from
probable-hyp to rejected-hyp:
> (change-class hyp 'rejected-hyp
:instance-name (next-class-instance-number 'rejected-hyp))
#<rejected-hyp 1409 (896 388) .68>
>
Note that the :instance-name initarg can be eliminated if both the old
and new classes for hyp are using the global instance-name counter.
Note
The next-class-instance-number function increments the global
instance-name counter value if the :use-global-instance-name-counter
class option is true for the unit class.
