Definition df-if 4525

Description: Definition of the conditional operator for classes. The expression if(𝜑, 𝐴, 𝐵) is read "if 𝜑 then 𝐴 else 𝐵". See iftrue 4530 and iffalse 4533 for its values. In the mathematical literature, this operator is rarely defined formally but is implicit in informal definitions such as "let f(x)=0 if x=0 and 1/x otherwise".

An important use for us is in conjunction with the weak deduction theorem, which is described in the next section, beginning at dedth 4582. (Contributed by NM, 15-May-1999.)
