Hi list, looking at the proof regarding addition of natural numbers, it was stated that the subset rule had been used-- in particular the set s being...
Thomas, Thanks for bringing this to my attention! The proof in question (at the DC Proof website) was written with an old version of DC Proof. Currently,...
Hi Dan, here's a fragment of a proof. Applying the uspec/espec rule to line 94, I get the warning: "x will depend on: x1, x2, y1, y2." Note that none of these...
Hi Thomas, You will get that message sometimes when you do Existential Specification. It is for informational purposes only to help you understand warnings...
Hi folks, I'd like to prove for all natural numbers a,b that a +a=b+b implies a=b. My ideas so far: Having shown that a<b, a=b, b<a are mutually exclusive, it...
Hi Thomas, Heading in the direction you've suggested: x<y =>x+x<y+x =>x+y<y+y x+y=y+x =>x+x<y+y This requires a<b=>a+c<b+c, a+b=b+a, a<b & b<c => a<c And if...
Hi list, there's something odd about substitution: Suppose you have r=c+a+b and x=a+b then substituting x in the 1st equation is impossible; whereas it works...
Hi Thomas, The usual order precedence for algebraic operators is built into DC Proof. In this case r=c+a+b is interpreted as r=(c+a)+b, the left- most +...

Hi Dan, here's the 'commutativity' proof of the add function-- I'm not quite sure if 'symmetric function' is the correct term for it. Regards, Thomas [Download...
Hi Dan, here's what I proved so far in constructing the add function. By the way, I think it's remarkable that the function used in the construction is...
