The axioms $*\in \mathrm{binaryOp}(X)$ above means that a monoid is closed with respect to the multiplication. One generally calls $X$ the loop, i.e. the set where the operation "$*$" is defined on. ==== Reference ==== Wikipedia: [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quasigroup|Quasigroup]] ==== Parents ==== === Subset of === [[Quasigroup]]
