6.1.3 Equality Terms and Quantifiers

Slightly higher in precedence than the logical connectives are the LSL eq-oprs, first-order quantifiers, and the satisfies operator. Informal descriptions also fit into the syntax at this level of precedence.

equality-term ::= lsl-op-term [ eq-opr lsl-op-term ]
        | quantifier [ quantifier ] ... ( term )
        | higher-order-comparison
        | informal-desc
eq-opr ::= = | == | \eq | ~= | != | \neq

An equality-term may have any sort, since no eq-opr need be used. See below for more details on the sorts of each form of equality-term.

See section 6.1.5 LSL Operator Terms for the syntax and meaning of lsl-op-terms. See section 6.13 Specifying Higher-Order Functions for the meaning of higher-order-comparison. See section 6.1.4 Informal Descriptions for the syntax and meaning of informal-desc. The other equality-terms are described below.
