Definition	df-plpq 7404*	Define pre-addition on positive fractions. This is a "temporary" set used in the construction of complex numbers, and is intended to be used only by the construction. This "pre-addition" operation works directly with ordered pairs of integers. The actual positive fraction addition +Q (df-plqqs 7409) works with the equivalence classes of these ordered pairs determined by the equivalence relation ~Q (df-enq 7407). (Analogous remarks apply to the other "pre-" operations in the complex number construction that follows.) From Proposition 9-2.3 of [Gleason] p. 117. (Contributed by NM, 28-Aug-1995.)
