[FOM] acceptable enumerations

A system of indices is acceptable if it is possible to go effectively  
from the standard coding to the system, and vice versa.

Rogers has shown that a system of indices is acceptable iff it  
satisfies both enumeration and parametrization, and that every  
acceptable system of indices satisfies the Fixed-Point Theorem.

Hence, one can say that acceptable systems of indices provide the same
structure theory for recursive functions as the standard one.
