and closed with the observation that the associated schema for the definition
of primitive recursive functions leads to overly verbose definitions. Moreover,
if you have worked exercise~\ref{ex:trev-trev} you will have noticed that
you needed to declare essentially the same function as @{term"rev"}
and prove many standard properties of list reversal all over again. 
We will now show you how \isacommand{recdef} can simplify
definitions and proofs about nested recursive datatypes. As an example we
choose exercise~\ref{ex:trev-trev}:
