This directorty contains the higher order quotients in Isabelle HOL

higher order quotients use partial equivalence relations/classes (PERs) 
instead of euivalence relations/classes
We have two classes er<per

Quotients are a specialization of higher order quotients.
The use the same constructor quot with the subclass er.

An Example for the application of quotients are the fractional numbers.
The example shows how to define an equivalence relation and how to use
the quotients.

For a more detailed description see [Slo97].
