Paul, I looked at the article and I understand that for that particular case. However that case fell back in the definition on an already existing infinite domain of the same order namely Z. There is also a similar definition in the Book for Odd numbers. In my case I cannot fall back on an existing finite domain, or I do not know how to explore/exploite it with Boolean. I am thinking of a domain named Irany having elements {North,East,South,West}. How can I do that without a reference to a more basic domain as foundation and expect that Element[NorthWest,Irany] will give me False?
