Say I have defined a schema S, which contains both variables and predicates. -- S ----------------- | | variables | |------- | | predicates | |_____________________ In another schema T say, I have a set X of type \power S. -- T ----------------- | | X: P S | |------- | | predicates | |_____________________ There is also a property I wish any S to hold. Let this property be P. So I have a schema P which includes S and defines the property -- P ----------------- | | S | variables | |------- | | predicates | |_____________________ Now how do I say that each x in X in the schema T has property P? Intuition tells me that it should be something like: -- T ----------------- | | X: P S | |------- | | predicates | | forall x in X @ P | |_____________________ But what is the link with x and the schema P? All suggestions/help gratefully received. -- Bill Ferreira (bill@uk.ac.warwick.dcs) Dept. of Computer Science, University of Warwick, Coventry CV4 7AL, ENGLAND.
