Hello everybody !

I just wrote a function I need for myself, and I wonder where I should
put it in Sage. Here is the thing:

I have a boolean function F defined on all subsets of a set X. The
function is increasing, i.e. F(X)=1 => F(X')=1 for all subsets X' of X.
I would call that "decreasing" (smaller sets give larger values of F).

or possibly only the
inclusionwise maximal solutions.
Sounds like an interesting problem, do you know of an efficient algorithm to do this (without simply trying all sets of course)? Have you looked in the literature?

And so I wondered what exactly I should do with this function, as it
seems to be the kind of things that could be useful to other people too.
Certainly.

Do you have any idea where it belongs ?
I have a "coding theory" feel about this problem because it sounds a bit like finding the minimal-weight vectors for a code (the sets X corresponding to the index sets of zero coefficients)
