% Domain   : Group Theory (Semigroups)
% Problem  : In semigroups, left inverse and id => right inverse exists
% Version  : [MOW76] axioms.
% English  : If there are left inverses and left identity, then every
%            element has a right inverse.

% Comments : This can also be viewed as a group theory problem, showing
%            that the right inverse axiom is dependant on the rest of the
%            axiom set; i.e., if there is a left inverse then there
%            is a right inverse.
