Axioms for the theory of proveit.logic.classes.membership

$x \notin C$ is defined as the negation of $x \in C$ for all $x$ and $C$:

In [3]:
not_in_class_def = Forall((x, C), Equals(NotInClass(x, C), 
                                         Not(InClass(x, C))))

%end axioms
These axioms may now be imported from the theory package: proveit.logic.classes.membership
