Hello,

After all the years I now improve && extend in particular the propositional 
logic section, I am still stuck with a fundamental question.

Is there a good reason why negation is handled differently from the 
bi-conditional? The definition of <-> is implicit. We learn that it must 
obey a particular expression, that enables us to retrieve the 
characteristics of this operator later.

Why on earth is tjhe same not done with negation? One can easily 
reinterpret axiom ax-3 as an implicit *definition* of negation, thus 
mandating a renaming to df-neg. The characteristics of negation are then 
determined likewise.

Looking forward to answers.

Wolf Lammen
