Primitive Class

This class is declared primitive and it does not have necessary and sufficient condiftions defined.

Primitive Rationale

There are insufficient constructs for creating a set of necessary and sufficient conditions

Formal Axioms

First-Order Logic Axioms

CellCount(x) → Count(x) ∧ ∀p(hasMagnitudeBasisInBearerPart(x,p) → Cell(p))

Semi-Formal Natural Language Axioms

if x is a ‘cell count’ then x is a ‘count’, and if x ‘has magnitude basis in bearer part’ some p, then p is a ‘cell’
