NonPositiveIntegers

NonPositiveIntegers

represents the domain of non-positive integers, as in x∈NonPositiveIntegers.

Details

  • x∈NonPositiveIntegers evaluates immediately if x is a numeric quantity.
  • Simplify[expr∈NonPositiveIntegers,assum] can be used to try to determine whether an expression is a non-positive integer under the given assumptions.
  • (x1|x2|…)∈NonPositiveIntegers and {x1,x2,…}∈NonPositiveIntegers test whether all xi are non-positive integers.
  • NonPositiveIntegers is output in StandardForm or TraditionalForm as TemplateBox[{}, NonPositiveIntegers]. This typeset form can be input using npints.

Applications  (1)

Testing membership in the non-positive integers is a fast way to verify non-positivity of a large list:

Properties & Relations  (3)

Membership in NonPositiveIntegers is equivalent to membership in Integers and non-positivity:

NonPositiveIntegers is contained in NonPositiveReals and NonPositiveRationals:

NonPositiveIntegers is disjoint from PositiveIntegers:

It intersects NonNegativeIntegers:
