 an axiomatic specification of a class of types. Thus we can talk about a type
 $\tau$ being in a class $C$, which is written $\tau :: C$.  This is the case if
 $\tau$ satisfies the axioms of $C$. Furthermore, type classes can be

 axioms of $C$ are also provable in $D$. We introduce these concepts
 by means of a running example, ordering relations.
