Programming Techniques III
A proof assistant is a software tool designed to help users construct formal proofs by providing an environment that supports the interaction between the user and a logical system. These tools often utilize dependent types to represent mathematical objects and proofs, enabling users to write specifications and verify them through interactive theorem proving. By using proof assistants, mathematicians and computer scientists can ensure the correctness of proofs and enhance the reliability of formal systems.
