Definition df-ndx 12910

Description: Define the structure component index extractor. See Theorem ndxarg 12930 to understand its purpose. The restriction to ℕ ensures that ndx is a set. The restriction to some set is necessary since I is a proper class. In principle, we could have chosen ℂ or (if we revise all structure component definitions such as df-base 12913) another set such as the set of finite ordinals ω (df-iom 4647).
