\newcounter

`\newcounter{newname}[oldcounter]`

The `\newcounter` command defines a new counter named `newname`. The optional argument `oldcounter` must be the name of an already defined counter; if present the new counter, `newname`, will be reset whenever `oldcounter`, the counter named in the optional argument, is incremented.
