Definition df-sup

Description: Define the supremum of class A . It is meaningful when R is a relation that strictly orders B and when the supremum exists. For example, R could be 'less than', B could be the set of real numbers, and A could be the set of all positive reals whose square is less than 2; in this case the supremum is defined as the square root of 2 per sqrtval . See dfsup2 for alternate definition not requiring dummy variables. (Contributed by NM, 22-May-1999)
