Cartesian closed category
- #category_theory
- is a category that:
- has terminal object terminal object
- product for any pair of objects product
- exponential object for any pair of objects internal hom-object
- terminal object like the 0th power,
- hom-set(a, terminal) ~= 1^a = ~= 1
- hom-set(a, a) ~= a^a
- exponential object is also object, so it can be power again and again. it is closed under "product" operation
