Theorem nic-mp

Description: Derive Nicod's rule of modus ponens using 'nand', from the standard one. Although the major and minor premise together also imply ch , this form is necessary for useful derivations from nic-ax . In a pure (standalone) treatment of Nicod's axiom, this theorem would be changed to an axiom ($a statement). (Contributed by Jeff Hoffman, 19-Nov-2007) (Proof modification is discouraged.) (New usage is discouraged.)
