Sigma KEE - IntervalFn

IntervalFn
A BinaryFunction that maps two instances of ConstantQuantity to the subclass of ConstantQuantity that comprises the interval from the first ConstantQuantity to the second ConstantQuantity. For example, (IntervalFn (MeasureFn 8 Meter) (MeasureFn 14 Meter)) would return the subclass of ConstantQuantity comprising quantities between 8 and 14 meters in length.
Relationships      
InstancesAbstratoProperties or qualities as distinguished from any particular embodiment of the properties/qualities in a physical medium. Instances of Abstract can be said to exist in the same sense as mathematical objects such as sets and relations, but they cannot exist at a particular place and time without some physical encoding or embodiment.
 Funcao BinariaThe Class of Functions that require two arguments.
 EntidadeThe universal class of individuals. This is the root node of the ontology.
 FuncaoA Function is a term-forming Relation that maps from a n-tuple of arguments to a range and that associates this n-tuple with at most one range element. Note that the range is a Class, and each element of the range is an instance of the Class.
 InheritableRelationThe class of Relations whose properties can be inherited downward in the class hierarchy via the subrelation Predicate.
 RelacaoThe Class of relations. There are two kinds of Relation: Predicate and Function. Predicates and Functions both denote sets of ordered n-tuples. The difference between these two Classes is that Predicates cover formula-forming operators, while Functions cover term-forming operators.
 Relacao com Valor UnicoA Relation is a SingleValuedRelation just in case an assignment of values to every argument position except the last one determines at most one assignment for the last argument position. Note that not all SingleValuedRelations are TotalValuedRelations.
 Relacao TernariaTernaryRelations relate three items. The two subclasses of TernaryRelation are TernaryPredicate and BinaryFunction.
 Relacao TotalA Relation is a TotalValuedRelation just in case there exists an assignment for the last argument position of the Relation given any assignment of values to every argument position except the last one. Note that declaring a Relation to be both a TotalValuedRelation and a SingleValuedRelation means that it is a total function.
