A trinary index is a way of indexing lists of theorems by their properties. It works as follows:

Theorem [ilmath]A[/ilmath] [ilmath]B[/ilmath] [ilmath]C[/ilmath] [ilmath]\longrightarrow[/ilmath] [ilmath]X[/ilmath] [ilmath]Y[/ilmath] [ilmath]Z[/ilmath]
Theorem fff-mmt F F F [ilmath]\iff[/ilmath] M M T
Theorem ffm-ttf F F M [ilmath]\implies[/ilmath] T T F
Theorem ttf-tmf T T F [ilmath]\implies[/ilmath] T M F
Theorem ttt-tmf T T T [ilmath]\implies[/ilmath] T M F

Notice the way the keys are sorted.

Editors notes

  • The key values are empty-false-maybe-true in that order
