<h2>INSTRUCTIONS</h2>instructions to the proof checker
<pre>Major Section:  <a href="PROOF-CHECKER.html">PROOF-CHECKER</a>
</pre><p>


<pre>
Example:
:instructions (induct prove promote (dive 1) x
                      (dive 2) = top (drop 2) prove)
</pre>

<p>
See <a href="DEFTHM.html">defthm</a> for the role of <code>:instructions</code> in place of
<code>:</code><code><a href="HINTS.html">hints</a></code>.  As illustrated by the example above, the value
associated with <code>:instructions</code> is a list of <a href="PROOF-CHECKER.html">proof-checker</a>
commands.  At the moment the best way to understand the idea of the
interactive proof-checker (see <a href="PROOF-CHECKER.html">proof-checker</a> and
see <a href="VERIFY.html">verify</a>) is probably to read the first 11 pages of CLI
Technical Report 19, which describes the corresponding facility for
Nqthm.<p>

When inside the interactive loop (i.e., after executing <code><a href="VERIFY.html">verify</a></code>),
use <code><a href="HELP.html">help</a></code> to get a list of legal instructions and <code>(help instr)</code>
to get help for the instruction <code>instr</code>.
