\isamarkuptrue%
%
\begin{isamarkuptext}%
Code generation by shallow embedding (cf.~\secref{sec:principle})
  allows to choose code equations and datatype constructors freely,
  given that some very basic syntactic properties are met; this
  flexibility opens up mechanisms for refinement which allow to extend
  the scope and quality of generated code dramatically.%

Program refinement works by choosing appropriate code equations
  explicitly (cf.~\label{sec:equations}); as example, we use Fibonacci

\isamarkupsubsection{Datatypes \label{sec:datatypes}%
}
\isamarkuptrue%
%
\begin{isamarkuptext}%
Conceptually, any datatype is spanned by a set of
  \emph{constructors} of type \isa{{\isasymtau}\ {\isacharequal}\ {\isasymdots}\ {\isasymRightarrow}\ {\isasymkappa}\ {\isasymalpha}\isactrlisub {\isadigit{1}}\ {\isasymdots}\ {\isasymalpha}\isactrlisub n} where \isa{{\isacharbraceleft}{\isasymalpha}\isactrlisub {\isadigit{1}}{\isacharcomma}\ {\isasymdots}{\isacharcomma}\ {\isasymalpha}\isactrlisub n{\isacharbraceright}} is exactly the set of \emph{all} type variables in
  \isa{{\isasymtau}}.  The HOL datatype package by default registers any new
  datatype in the table of datatypes, which may be inspected using the
  \hyperlink{command.print-codesetup}{\mbox{\isa{\isacommand{print{\isacharunderscore}codesetup}}}} command.

  In some cases, it is appropriate to alter or extend this table.  As
  an example, we will develop an alternative representation of the
  queue example given in \secref{sec:queue_example}.  The amortised
  representation is convenient for generating code but exposes its
  \qt{implementation} details, which may be cumbersome when proving
  theorems about it.  Therefore, here is a simple, straightforward
  representation of queues:%

\begin{isamarkuptext}%
\noindent From this example, it can be glimpsed that using own
  constructor sets is a little delicate since it changes the set of
  valid patterns for values of that type.  Without going into much
  detail, here some practical hints:

  \begin{itemize}

    \item When changing the constructor set for datatypes, take care
      to provide alternative equations for the \isa{case} combinator.

    \item Values in the target language need not to be normalised --
      different values in the target language may represent the same
      value in the logic.

    \item Usually, a good methodology to deal with the subtleties of
      pattern matching is to see the type as an abstract type: provide
      a set of operations which operate on the concrete representation
      of the type, and derive further operations by combinations of
      these primitive ones, without relying on a particular
      representation.
