Tables 54.1, 54.2, and 54.3 show three different ways of representing the elements of the world set W as vectors in the coordinate space W and as singular propositions in the universe of discourse W[].  Altogether, these Tables present the "literal" codes for the elements of W and W[] in their "mnemonic", "pragmatic", and "abstract" versions, respectively.  In each Table, Column 1 lists the element w C W, while Column 2 gives the corresponding coordinate vector w C W in the form of a bit string.  The next two Columns represent each w C W as a proposition in W[], in effect, reconstituting it as a function w : W >B.  Column 3 shows the propositional expression of each element in the form of a conjunct term, in other words, as a logical product of positive and negative features.  Column 4 gives the compact code for each element, using a conjunction of positive features in subscripted angle brackets to represent the singular proposition corresponding to each element.
