The bound connectives are written as lists of ''k'' expressions (''e''<sub>1</sub>,&nbsp;…,&nbsp;''e''<sub>''k''</sub>), where the parentheses and commas are considered to be parts of the connective notation.  In text presentations the parentheses will be superscripted, as <sup>(</sup>''e''<sub>1</sub>,&nbsp;…,&nbsp;''e''<sub>''k''</sub><sup>)</sup>, to avoid confusion with other uses.  The bound connective is interpreted to mean that just one of the ''k'' listed expressions is false.  That is, <sup>(</sup>''e''<sub>1</sub>,&nbsp;…,&nbsp;''e''<sub>''k''</sub><sup>)</sup> is true if and only if exactly one of the expressions ''e''<sub>1</sub>,&nbsp;…,&nbsp;''e''<sub>''k''</sub> is false.  In particular, for ''k'' = 1 and 2:
