Roughly as follows:

1. You can select an arbitrary subset from any set.

2. You can form the Cartesian product of any number of sets.

3. You can construct the power set of any set.

4. Sets are equal if they contain the same elements.

5. If x and y are free variable expressions and x = y, then y can be
substituted for x in any other expression.

6. I define what functional notatation means in terms of ordered n-tuples
and equality.

A later version may include the Axiom of Choice.
