Expression of type Equals

from the theory of proveit.numbers.exponentiation

# Automation is not needed when building an expression:
proveit.defaults.automation = False # This will speed things up.
proveit.defaults.inline_pngs = False # Makes files smaller.

# import Expression classes needed to build the expression
from proveit import a, b, n
from proveit.logic import Equals

# build up the expression from sub-expressions
expr = Equals(Exp(frac(a, b), Neg(n)), frac(Exp(b, n), Exp(a, n)))

expr:

# check that the built expression is the same as the stored expression
assert expr == stored_expr
assert expr._style_id == stored_expr._style_id
print("Passed sanity check: expr matches stored_expr")

Passed sanity check: expr matches stored_expr

# Show the LaTeX representation of the expression for convenience if you need it.
print(stored_expr.latex())

\left(\frac{a}{b}\right)^{-n} = \frac{b^{n}}{a^{n}}

stored_expr.style_options()

name	description	default	current value	related methods
operation	'infix' or 'function' style formatting	infix	infix
wrap_positions	position(s) at which wrapping is to occur; '2 n - 1' is after the nth operand, '2 n' is after the nth operation.	()	()	('with_wrapping_at', 'with_wrap_before_operator', 'with_wrap_after_operator', 'without_wrapping', 'wrap_positions')
justification	if any wrap positions are set, justify to the 'left', 'center', or 'right'	center	center	('with_justification',)
direction	Direction of the relation (normal or reversed)	normal	normal	('with_direction_reversed', 'is_reversed')
