Riiiight. As nations and smaller school districts remove evolution from 
their textbooks, they're going to teach mathematical logic and set 
theory in elementary school?

In any event, this being a Java forum, the notation '=<' (shown nowhere 
in your reference link, BTW) is rather odd, as we are used to '<='. Given 
that '=<' apparently is not part of the "Set Builder" notation, how about 
we stick with the Java (also C, Fortran, C++, C#, Javascript, BASIC, SQL, 
Python, shell, ...) idiom?
