{"# Ordered rings and semirings
This file develops the basics of ordered (semi)rings.
Each typeclass here comprises
* an algebraic class (Semiring, CommSemiring, Ring, CommRing)
* an order class (PartialOrder, LinearOrder)
* assumptions on how both interact ((strict) monotonicity, canonicity)
For short,
* \"+ respects ≤\" means \"monotonicity of addition\"
* \"+ respects <\" means \"strict monotonicity of addition\"
* \"* respects ≤\" means \"monotonicity of multiplication by a nonnegative number\".
* \"* respects <\" means \"strict monotonicity of multiplication by a positive number\".

Hierarchy
The hardest part of proving order lemmas might be to figure out the correct generality and its corresponding typeclass. Here's an attempt at demystifying it. For each typeclass, we list its immediate predecessors and what conditions are added to each of them.
