You can define S^#, though!
S^# == Cardinality(S)

Since you said you're new, I can also recommend reading his entire tutorial page and blog posts in addition to his book (https://www.amazon.se/-/en/Hillel-Wayne/dp/1484238281). Other resources when you're done working these are: - Specifying Systems by Leslie Lamport (which is only TLA+) - http://lamport.azurewebsites.net/tla/learning.html - great way to get into how to think about this Regards Lee On Friday, April 26, 2024 at 10:11:55 AM UTC+2 marta zhango wrote:That is what I needed to see as I am new to all this, with no idea where to start.
