I have rewritten my standalone conversion between Norrish numerals and binary numerals.<br><br>The code now lives here: <a href="https://gitorious.org/hol/ot/trees/master">https://gitorious.org/hol/ot/trees/master</a> (it is numconv.hs)<br>
<br>Changes/Features:<br><ul><li>Now translates in both directions: Norrish -> Binary and Binary -> Norrish</li><li>Translates numerals recursively within any term (doesn't require a bare numeral as input)</li>
<li>
Optional "rule mode" proves t |- t' rather than |- t = t'; maybe useful for converting numerals in an already proved theorem and composing the resulting articles.<br></li><li>Refactored into several reusable Haskell modules</li>
<li>Cleaned up code; it now doesn't emit any warnings with ghc's -Wall.<br></li></ul>I haven't tested it very much, especially in the from-binary direction. Test articles and use cases would be appreciated. The axioms in that direction are probably not in the standard library, but they are provable in HOL4...<br>
<br>The next task I want to do is figure out how best to create a kind of "compatibility theory package" that would include those theorems (and other common prover-specific theorems) that can be added to the "requires:" of a package for easy use of packages coming out of specific provers.<br>
<br>I look forward to your comments and tests for numconv :)<br>And if you have ideas for other standalone proof tools, the OpenTheory Haskell modules are free to use.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Apr 6, 2012 at 9:31 PM, Joe Hurd <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:joe@gilith.com" target="_blank">joe@gilith.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>
