Example:
push_quantum_as_nonnegative_int (2u);
exponent = top_estack;
push_quantum (8u); /* Push variable x */
replace_top2_with_pow (exponent);
xsq = top_estack; /* top_estack -> x^2 */
push_quantum (9u); /* Push variable y */
replace_top2_with_prod (xsq); /* top_estack -> x^2 * y */
index_of_lead_base_of_lead_term (top_estack);
/* : Returns index of variable x */
add1_to_top (top_estack); /* top_estack -> x^2 * y + 1 */
index_of_lead_base_of_lead_term (top_estack);
/* : Returns index of variable x */
