subsection {* 'Deriving rules in Isabelle' *};

text {* We derive the conjunction elimination rule from the
 projections.  The proof below follows the basic reasoning of the
 script given in the Isabelle Intro Manual closely.  Although, the
 actual underlying operations on rules and proof states are quite
 different: Isabelle/Isar supports non-atomic goals and assumptions
 fully transparently, while the original Isabelle classic script
 depends on the primitive goal command to decompose the rule into
 premises and conclusion, with the result emerging by discharging the
 context again later. *};
