2.3.14  Ordinals
Syntax	word 6331	Extend the definition of a wff to include the ordinal predicate.
wff Ord 𝐴
Syntax	con0 6332	Extend the definition of a class to include the class of all ordinal numbers. (The 0 in the name prevents creating a file called con.html, which causes problems in Windows.)
class On
Syntax	wlim 6333	Extend the definition of a wff to include the limit ordinal predicate.
wff Lim 𝐴
Syntax	csuc 6334	Extend class notation to include the successor function.
class suc 𝐴
Definition	df-ord 6335	Define the ordinal predicate, which is true for a class that is transitive and is well-ordered by the membership relation. Variant of definition of [BellMachover] p. 468. Some sources will define a notation for ordinal order corresponding to < and ≤ but we just use ∈ and ⊆ respectively. (Contributed by NM, 17-Sep-1993.)
⊢ (Ord 𝐴 ↔ (Tr 𝐴 ∧ E We 𝐴))
Definition	df-on 6336	Define the class of all ordinal numbers. Definition 7.11 of [TakeutiZaring] p. 38. (Contributed by NM, 5-Jun-1994.)
⊢ On = {𝑥 ∣ Ord 𝑥}
Definition	df-lim 6337	Define the limit ordinal predicate, which is true for a nonempty ordinal that is not a successor (i.e. that is the union of itself). Our definition combines the definition of Lim of [BellMachover] p. 471 and Exercise 1 of [TakeutiZaring] p. 42. See dflim2 6390, dflim3 7823, and dflim4 for alternate definitions. (Contributed by NM, 22-Apr-1994.)
⊢ (Lim 𝐴 ↔ (Ord 𝐴 ∧ 𝐴 ≠ ∅ ∧ 𝐴 = ∪ 𝐴))
Definition	df-suc 6338	Define the successor of a class. When applied to an ordinal number, the successor means the same thing as "plus 1" (see oa1suc 8495). Definition 7.22 of [TakeutiZaring] p. 41, who use "+ 1" to denote this function. Definition 1.4 of [Schloeder] p. 1, similarly. Ordinal natural numbers defined using this successor function and 0 as the empty set are also called von Neumann ordinals; 0 is the empty set {}, 1 is {0, {0}}, 2 is {1, {1}}, and so on. Our definition is a generalization to classes. Although it is not conventional to use it with proper classes, it has no effect on a proper class (sucprc 6410), so that the successor of any ordinal class is still an ordinal class (ordsuc 7788), simplifying certain proofs. Some authors denote the successor operation with a prime (apostrophe-like) symbol, such as Definition 6 of [Suppes] p. 134 and the definition of successor in [Mendelson] p. 246 (who uses the symbol "Suc" as a predicate to mean "is a successor ordinal"). The definition of successor of [Enderton] p. 68 denotes the operation with a plus-sign superscript. (Contributed by NM, 30-Aug-1993.)
