Std.Tactic.Basic

exfalso converts a goal ⊢ tgt into False by applying False.elim.

Instances For

    _ in tactic position acts like the done tactic: it fails and gives the list of goals if there are any. It is useful as a placeholder after starting a tactic block such as by _ to make it syntactically correct and show the current goal.

      fail_if_success t fails if the tactic t succeeds.

        rwa calls rw, then closes any remaining goals using assumption.

          Like exact, but takes a list of terms and checks that all goals are discharged after the tactic.

            by_contra h proves ⊢ p by contradiction, introducing a hypothesis h : ¬p and proving False.

            Instances For

              Given a proof h of p, absurd h changes the goal to ⊢ ¬ p. If p is a negation ¬q then the goal is changed to ⊢ q instead.

                iterate n tac runs tac exactly n times. iterate tac runs tac repeatedly until failure.

                To run multiple tactics, one can do iterate (tac₁; tac₂; ⋯) or

                  repeat' tac runs tac on all of the goals to produce a new list of goals, then runs tac again on all of those goals, and repeats until tac fails on all remaining goals.

                    repeat1 tac applies tac to main goal at least once. If the application succeeds, the tactic is applied recursively to the generated subgoals until it eventually fails.

                          fapply e is like apply e but it adds goals in the order they appear, rather than putting the dependent goals first.

                            eapply e is like apply e but it does not add subgoals for variables that appear in the types of other goals. Note that this can lead to a failure where there are no goals remaining but there are still metavariables in the term:

                            example (h : ∀ x : Nat, x = x → True) : True := by
                              eapply h

                              Tries to solve the goal using a canonical proof of True, or the rfl tactic. Unlike trivial or trivial', does not use the contradiction tactic.

                                  The conv tactic equals claims that the currently focused subexpression is equal to the given expression, and proves this claim using the given tactic.

                                  example (P : (Nat → Nat) → Prop) : P (fun n => n - n) := by
