ontology.save(inplace=True)Every OWL object that can be used to classify individuals, is considered a class expression and inherits from OWLClassExpression class. In the above examples we have introduced 3 types of class expressions:
Like we showed in this example, you can create all kinds of class expressions using the OWL objects in owlapy api.
