(*<*) theory natsum imports Main begin (*>*) text{*\noindent In particular, there are @{text"case"}-expressions, for example @{term[display]"case n of 0 => 0 | Suc m => m"} primitive recursion, for example *} primrec sum :: "nat \<Rightarrow> nat" where "sum 0 = 0" | "sum (Suc n) = Suc n + sum n" text{*\noindent and induction, for example *} lemma "sum n + sum n = n*(Suc n)" apply(induct_tac n) apply(auto) done text{*\newcommand{\mystar}{*% } \index{arithmetic operations!for \protect\isa{nat}}% The arithmetic operations \isadxboldpos{+}{$HOL2arithfun}, \isadxboldpos{-}{$HOL2arithfun}, \isadxboldpos{\mystar}{$HOL2arithfun}, \sdx{div}, \sdx{mod}, \cdx{min} and \cdx{max} are predefined, as are the relations \isadxboldpos{\isasymle}{$HOL2arithrel} and \isadxboldpos{<}{$HOL2arithrel}. As usual, @{prop"m-n = (0::nat)"} if @{prop"m<n"}. There is even a least number operation \sdx{LEAST}\@. For example, @{prop"(LEAST n. 0 < n) = Suc 0"}. \begin{warn}\index{overloading} The constants \cdx{0} and \cdx{1} and the operations \isadxboldpos{+}{$HOL2arithfun}, \isadxboldpos{-}{$HOL2arithfun}, \isadxboldpos{\mystar}{$HOL2arithfun}, \cdx{min}, \cdx{max}, \isadxboldpos{\isasymle}{$HOL2arithrel} and \isadxboldpos{<}{$HOL2arithrel} are overloaded: they are available not just for natural numbers but for other types as well. For example, given the goal @{text"x + 0 = x"}, there is nothing to indicate that you are talking about natural numbers. Hence Isabelle can only infer that @{term x} is of some arbitrary type where @{text 0} and @{text"+"} are declared. As a consequence, you will be unable to prove the goal. To alert you to such pitfalls, Isabelle flags numerals without a fixed type in its output: @{prop"x+0 = x"}. (In the absence of a numeral, it may take you some time to realize what has happened if \pgmenu{Show Types} is not set). In this particular example, you need to include an explicit type constraint, for example @{text"x+0 = (x::nat)"}. If there is enough contextual information this may not be necessary: @{prop"Suc x = x"} automatically implies @{text"x::nat"} because @{term Suc} is not overloaded. For details on overloading see \S\ref{sec:overloading}. Table~\ref{tab:overloading} in the appendix shows the most important overloaded operations. \end{warn} \begin{warn} The symbols \isadxboldpos{>}{$HOL2arithrel} and \isadxboldpos{\isasymge}{$HOL2arithrel} are merely syntax: @{text"x > y"} stands for @{prop"y < x"} and similary for @{text"\<ge>"} and @{text"\<le>"}. \end{warn} \begin{warn} Constant @{text"1::nat"} is defined to equal @{term"Suc 0"}. This definition (see \S\ref{sec:ConstDefinitions}) is unfolded automatically by some tactics (like @{text auto}, @{text simp} and @{text arith}) but not by others (especially the single step tactics in Chapter~\ref{chap:rules}). If you need the full set of numerals, see~\S\ref{sec:numerals}. \emph{Novices are advised to stick to @{term"0::nat"} and @{term Suc}.} \end{warn} Both @{text auto} and @{text simp} (a method introduced below, \S\ref{sec:Simplification}) prove simple arithmetic goals automatically: *} lemma "\<lbrakk> \<not> m < n; m < n + (1::nat) \<rbrakk> \<Longrightarrow> m = n" (*<*)by(auto)(*>*) text{*\noindent For efficiency's sake, this built-in prover ignores quantified formulae, many logical connectives, and all arithmetic operations apart from addition. In consequence, @{text auto} and @{text simp} cannot prove this slightly more complex goal: *} lemma "m \<noteq> (n::nat) \<Longrightarrow> m < n \<or> n < m" (*<*)by(arith)(*>*) text{*\noindent The method \methdx{arith} is more general. It attempts to prove the first subgoal provided it is a \textbf{linear arithmetic} formula. Such formulas may involve the usual logical connectives (@{text"\<not>"}, @{text"\<and>"}, @{text"\<or>"}, @{text"\<longrightarrow>"}, @{text"="}, @{text"\<forall>"}, @{text"\<exists>"}), the relations @{text"="}, @{text"\<le>"} and @{text"<"}, and the operations @{text"+"}, @{text"-"}, @{term min} and @{term max}. For example, *} lemma "min i (max j (k*k)) = max (min (k*k) i) (min i (j::nat))" apply(arith) (*<*)done(*>*) text{*\noindent succeeds because @{term"k*k"} can be treated as atomic. In contrast, *} lemma "n*n = n+1 \<Longrightarrow> n=0" (*<*)oops(*>*) text{*\noindent is not proved by @{text arith} because the proof relies on properties of multiplication. Only multiplication by numerals (which is the same as iterated addition) is taken into account. \begin{warn} The running time of @{text arith} is exponential in the number of occurrences of \ttindexboldpos{-}{$HOL2arithfun}, \cdx{min} and \cdx{max} because they are first eliminated by case distinctions. If @{text k} is a numeral, \sdx{div}~@{text k}, \sdx{mod}~@{text k} and @{text k}~\sdx{dvd} are also supported, where the former two are eliminated by case distinctions, again blowing up the running time. If the formula involves quantifiers, @{text arith} may take super-exponential time and space. \end{warn} *} (*<*) end (*>*)
