strictweakordering


A few corrections:

Earlier I wrote:

> a relation '<<' on S is a strict weak order

This is incorrect.  For h : (S, <<) -> (Z, <) to be a
homomorphism only requires that for all x,y:

	x << y ==> h(x) < h(y)

whereas for << to be a strict weak order requires the stronger condition:

	x << y <==> h(x) < h(y)

See <URL: http://www.sgi.com/Technology/STL/StrictWeakOrdering.html >
for an alternate definition.

More importantly, I got the use of 'imax' and 'imin' backwards
in the validation algorithm; it should read instead:

> 		    iprev := imin(H,n)
> 	    END-TAG(n):
> 		    iprev := imin(H,n)
