Birthdays of surreals #
We define the birthday of a surreal number as the smallest birthday of all numeric pre-games equivalent to it.
The numeric condition can be removed to yield an equivalent definition, but that is proved in
CombinatorialGames.Surreal.Birthday.Cut.
The birthday of a surreal number is defined as the least birthday among all numeric pre-games that define it.
The numeric condition can be removed, see Surreal.birthday_toGame.
Instances For
See Surreal.birthday_toGame for the equality.
