text {*
  When natural numbers are implemented in another than the
  conventional inductive @{term "0::nat"}/@{term Suc} representation,
  it is necessary to avoid all pattern matching on natural numbers
  altogether.  This is accomplished by this theory (up to a certain
  extent).
*}

subsection {* Case analysis *}

text {*
  Case analysis on natural numbers is rephrased using a conditional
  expression:
*}

lemma [code, code_unfold]:
  "case_nat = (\<lambda>f g n. if n = 0 then f else g (n - 1))"
  by (auto simp add: fun_eq_iff dest!: gr0_implies_Suc)


subsection {* Preprocessors *}

text {*
  The term @{term "Suc n"} is no longer a valid pattern.  Therefore,
  all occurrences of this term in a position where a pattern is
  expected (i.e.~on the left-hand side of a code equation) must be
  eliminated.  This can be accomplished – as far as possible – by
  applying the following transformation rule:
*}

lemma Suc_if_eq: "(\<And>n. f (Suc n) \<equiv> h n) \<Longrightarrow> f 0 \<equiv> g \<Longrightarrow>
  f n \<equiv> if n = 0 then g else h (n - 1)"
  by (rule eq_reflection) (cases n, simp_all)

text {*
  The rule above is built into a preprocessor that is plugged into
  the code generator.
