So you want to define 01, and 10 the opposite way? Fine for me, since I have always been confused by the left and right:-)
Perhaps, the least confusing way to establish direction in the lattice is to agree that 10 > 01. Therefore 01 is the least element and 10 is the greatest one. Received on Tue Aug 16 2005 - 15:36:13 CDT
