<h2>Symbolic Execution of Models</h2>
<p>
But ACL2 is more than a programming language.  <p>

Initialize <b>x</B> to 5 and let <b>y</B> be <b>any legal value</B>.<p>

<p>

Because ACL2 is a mathematical language, we can simplify the expression<p>


<pre>
(lookup 'z (mc (s 'mult 5 y) 29))
</pre>
<p>

and get (+ y y y y y).  This is <b>symbolic execution</B> because not all
of the parameters are known.<p>
