public abstract class AbstractArgumentList
extends AbstractArgument
implements Argument

Every Operator must inherit from this class. Its main function is to provide the standard implemention of AbstractArgument.equals(java.lang.Object), AbstractArgument.matches(com.meyling.principia.argument.Argument, com.meyling.principia.argument.PatternVariables) and AbstractArgument.hashCode().
