ProofObject

ProofObject[]

represents a proof object generated by FindEquationalProof.

Details

  • Properties of a proof can be obtained using ProofObject[]["prop"].
  • Possible properties include:
  • "ProofDataset"proof steps as a dataset
    "ProofGraph"abstract proof network
    "ProofGraphWeighted"abstract proof network with central lemmas emphasized
    "ProofLength"number of steps in the proof
    "ProofNotebook"proof written out in a notebook
    "ProofFunction"function for validating rewrite rules
    "Theorems"statement of theorems
    "Axioms"statement of axioms
    "Logic"type of logic used (e.g. "EquationalLogic")
