Init.Notation

Auxiliary type used to represent syntax categories. We mainly use auxiliary definitions with this type to attach doc strings to syntax categories.

      command is the syntax category for things that appear at the top level of a lean file. For example, def foo := 1 is a command, as is namespace Foo and end Foo. Commands generally have an effect on the state of adding something to the environment (like a new definition), as well as commands like variable which modify future commands within a scope.

        term is the builtin syntax category for terms. A term denotes an expression in lean's type theory, for example 2 + 2 is a term. The difference between Term and Expr is that the former is a kind of syntax, while the latter is the result of elaboration. For example by simp is also a Term, but it elaborates to different Exprs depending on the context.

          tactic is the builtin syntax category for tactics. These appear after by in proofs, and they are programs that take in the proof context (the hypotheses in scope plus the type of the term to synthesize) and construct a term of the expected type. For example, simp is a tactic, used in:

          example : 2 + 2 = 4 := by simp

            doElem is a builtin syntax category for elements that can appear in the do notation. For example, let x ← e is a doElem, and a do block consists of a list of doElems.

              level is a builtin syntax category for universe levels. This is the u in Sort u: it can contain max and imax, addition with constants, and variables.

                    prio is a builtin syntax category for priorities. Priorities are used in many different attributes. Higher numbers denote higher priority, and for example typeclass search will try high priority instances before low priority. In addition to literals like 37, you can also use low, mid, high, as well as add and subtract priorities.

                      prec is a builtin syntax category for precedences. A precedence is a value that expresses how tightly a piece of syntax binds: for example 1 + 2 * 3 is parsed as 1 + (2 * 3) because * has a higher pr0ecedence than +. Higher numbers denote higher precedence. In addition to literals like 37, there are some special named priorities:

                      • arg for the precedence of function arguments
                      • max for the highest precedence used in term parsers (not actually the maximum possible value)
                      • lead for the precedence of terms not supposed to be used as arguments and you can also add and subtract precedences.

                                                            p is allowed to have arity n > 1 (in which case the node will have either 0 or n children), but if it has arity 0 then the result will be ambiguous.

                                                            Because ? is an identifier character, ident? will not work as intended. You have to write either ident ? or (ident)? for it to parse as the ? combinator applied to the ident parser.

It does not backtrack, meaning that if p1 consumes at least one token then p2 will not be tried. Therefore, the parsers should all differ in their first token. The atomic(p) parser combinator can be used to locally backtrack a parser. (For full backtracking, consider using extensible syntax classes instead.)

                                                              On success, if the inner parser does not generate exactly one node, it will be automatically wrapped in a group node, so the result will always be arity 1.

                                                              The <|> combinator does not generate a node of its own, and in particular does not tag the inner parsers to distinguish them, which can present a problem when reconstructing the parse. A well formed <|> parser should use disjoint node kinds for p1 and p2.

But sometimes it is necessary to talk about the raw numeral directly, especially when proving properties about the ofNat function itself.

It has the important property that every assertion respects the equivalence, in the sense that we can substitute equal expressions without changing the truth value. That is, given h1 : a = b and h2 : p a, we can construct a proof for p b using substitution: Eq.subst h1 h2. Example:

We redefine the macros below to be able to use the auxiliary binrel% elaboration helper for binary relations. It has better support for applying coercions. For example, suppose we have binrel% Eq n i where n : Nat and i : Int. The default elaborator fails because we don't have a coercion from Int to Nat, but binrel% succeeds because it also tries a coercion from Nat to Int even when the nat occurs before the int.

For example, Array.get arr ⟨i, h⟩ expects a proof h : i < arr.size in order to avoid a bounds check, so you can write if h : i < arr.size then arr.get ⟨i, h⟩ else ... to avoid the bounds check inside the if branch. (Of course in this case we have only lifted the check into an explicit if, but we could also use this proof multiple times or derive i < arr.size from some other proposition that we are checking in the if.)

The explicit argument c : Prop does not have any actual computational content, but there is an additional [Decidable c] argument synthesized by typeclass inference which actually determines how to evaluate c to true or false. Write if h : c then t else e instead for a "dependent if-then-else" dite, which allows t/e to use the fact that c is true/false.

This attribute specifies that foo should be treated as irreducible only within the local scope, which helps in maintaining the desired abstraction level without affecting global settings.
