Theorem tfi 7700
Description: The Principle of Transfinite Induction. Theorem 7.17 of [TakeutiZaring] p. 39. This principle states that if 𝐴 is a class of ordinal numbers with the property that every ordinal number included in 𝐴 also belongs to 𝐴, then every ordinal number is in 𝐴.

See Theorem tfindes 7709 or tfinds 7706 for the version involving basis and induction hypotheses. (Contributed by NM, 18-Feb-2004.)
