| In contexts where the initial letter <math>\nu\!</math> is understood, the minimal negation operators can be indicated by argument lists in parentheses. In the following text a distinctive typeface will be used for logical expressions based on minimal negation operators, for example, <math>\texttt{(x, y, z)}</math> = <math>\nu (x, y, z).\!</math> | | In contexts where the initial letter <math>\nu\!</math> is understood, the minimal negation operators can be indicated by argument lists in parentheses.
