	inclusive

    In domain theory, a predicate P : D -> Bool is
   inclusive iff

   	For any chain C, a subset of D, and
   	for all c in C,
   	P(c) => P(lub C)

   In other words, if the predicate holds for all elements of an
   increasing sequence then it holds for their least upper
   bound.

   ("lub is written in LaTeX as \sqcup).
