Let [ilmath]X[/ilmath] be a set. We call [ilmath]X[/ilmath] a singleton if:
- [ilmath]\exists t[t\in X\rightarrow\forall s(s\in X\rightarrow s\eq t)][/ilmath]
- In words: [ilmath]X[/ilmath] is a singleton if: there exists a thing such that ( if the thing is in X then forall stuff ( if that stuff is in [ilmath]X[/ilmath] then the stuff is the thing ) )
