Documentation:

ALL-VALUES is a way to state all of the the values of a slot on an instance. Its third argument is a set. If all-values are given for a slot on an instance, there cannot be any other values for that slot on that instance. For example, (= (ALL-VALUES i R) (setof v_1 v_2 v_3)) means that R(i,v_1), R(i,v_2), and R(i,v_3) hold, and there is no other unique v_i for which R(i,v_i) holds.

Notes:

• Version-4: In version 3, this was incorrectly defined as a relation. It should have been a function all along. The definition remains the same.
