LP, the Larch Prover -- The proof-methods setting


The proof-methods setting provides a list of default proof methods for LP to use when attempting to prove a formula.

Syntax

<set-proof-methods-command> ::= set proof-methods <default-proof-method>+[,]
Note: Each <default-proof-method> can be abbreviated.

Examples

set proof =>, normalization

Usage

The set proof-methods command provides a list of default proof methods for the current proof context. LP uses the first method in the list that applies to the conjecture. The default list is normalization. Any method (other than contradiction) that does not mention a variable or constant can appear on the list. If the proof-method list is explicit-commands, then LP will await a resume command before beginning the proof.
