Issue 12531: editorial issue -- example is missing a line (sbvr-rtf) Source: International Business Machines (Mr. Mark H. Linehan, mlinehan(at)us.ibm.com) Nature: Uncategorized Issue Severity: Summary: In section 9.2.8, on page 70, the example for "aggregation formulation" introduces several variables. All but one of the introduced variables is specifed as ranging over some concept. For example, ". . . . The second variable ranges over the concept ‘number’." My issue: there is no corresponding "ranges over" line for the third variable. It is true (per 9.2.1) that variables need not range over any concept. But this example would be clearer if the "ranges over" line were included for that third variable. I believe this third variable is supposed to range over the concept 'set'.

I agree with Mark. The variable ranges over the concept 'set' because the projection has no auxiliary variable.
