Natural numbers


Require Import ssreflect.

Coq knows about natural numbers

Check 5.

Check 5+5.

and how to compute with them

Eval compute in 5×5.

these are `unary' numbers, built out of 0 and S (successor)

Set Printing All.
Check 5.
Unset Printing All.

a definition by case, to compute the predecessor

Definition pred n :=
  match n with
    | 0 ⇒ 0
    | S nn
  end.

Eval compute in pred 5.

a recursive definition by case, to compute addition (plus is already defined in the standard library, we redefine it here just for the sake of the example)

Fixpoint plus n m :=
  match n with
    | 0 ⇒ m
    | S nS (plus n m)
  end.

Eval compute in plus 5 5.
