Definition df-oprab 6530

Description: Define the class abstraction (class builder) of a collection of nested ordered pairs (for use in defining operations). This is a special case of Definition 4.16 of [TakeutiZaring] p. 14. Normally 𝑥, 𝑦, and 𝑧 are distinct, although the definition doesn't strictly require it. See df-ov 6529 for the value of an operation. The brace notation is called "class abstraction" by Quine; it is also called a "class builder" in the literature. The value of the most common operation class builder is given by ovmpt2 6671.

Assertion

Ref	Expression
df-oprab	⊢ {⟨⟨𝑥, 𝑦⟩, 𝑧⟩ ∣ 𝜑} = {𝑤 ∣ ∃𝑥∃𝑦∃𝑧(𝑤 = ⟨⟨𝑥, 𝑦⟩, 𝑧⟩ ∧ 𝜑)}

Distinct variable groups:   𝑥,𝑤   𝑦,𝑤   𝑧,𝑤   𝜑,𝑤

Allowed substitution hints:   𝜑(𝑥,𝑦,𝑧)
