% Domain   : Logic Calculi
% Problem  : ORG-D23 is a single axiom for propositional calculus
% Version  : [EF+02] axioms.
% English  : Show that formula ORG-D23 is a single axiom for propositional
%            calculus in terms of the Sheffer stroke by deriving Nicod's
%            single axiom.

% Syntax   : Number of clauses     :    3 (   2 unt;   0 nHn;   2 RR)

%            Maximal term depth    :    6 (   2 avg)
%            Number of predicates  :    1 (   1 usr;   0 prp; 1-1 aty)
%            Number of functors    :    6 (   6 usr;   5 con; 0-2 aty)
%            Number of variables   :    7 (   1 sgn)
% SPC      : CNF_UNS_RFO_NEQ_HRN

% Comments : The nice property of ORG-D23 is that it is organic; that is, no
%            subformula is a theorem.
