Isabelle2002 is now available.

This release provides major improvements. The Isar language has
|
|
|
8 |
reached a mature state; the core engine is able to record full proof
|
|
|
9 |
terms; many aspects of the library have been reworked; several
|
|
|
10 |
substantial case studies have been added. Some changes may cause
|
|
|
11 |
incompatibility with earlier versions, but improve accessibility of
|
|
|
12 |
Isabelle for new users.
