Definition df-recs 6363

Description: Define a function recs ( F ) on On, the class of ordinal numbers, by transfinite recursion given a rule F which sets the next value given all values so far. See df-irdg 6428 for more details on why this definition is desirable. Unlike df-irdg 6428 which restricts the update rule to use only the previous value, this version allows the update rule to use all previous values, which is why it is described as "strong", although it is actually more primitive. See tfri1d 6393 and tfri2d 6394 for the primary contract of this definition.
