      From: csaavedra@alumnos.utalca.cl              El lun, 03-03-2008 a las 10:37 -0800, MattR escribiC3:       > Why is it !a and not a!              Well, in this particular case, for me, "a!" has a very different meaning       in a very different context (factorial function), and well, in logic,       the negation operator has been always a prefix one: "B,a". So I'm       definitively more comfortable with the prefix approach.              Claudio              --       Claudio Saavedra |
