\DOC FIX_TAC
\TYPE {FIX_TAC : string -> tactic}
\SYNOPSIS
Fixes universally quantified variables in goal.
\DESCRIBE
Given a string {s} indicating a sequence of variable names, {FIX_TAC s}
performs the introduction of the indicated universally quantified variables.
It is not required to specify the variables in any particular order. The
syntax for the string argument s allows the following patterns:
\begin{{itemize}}
\item a variable name {varname} (meaning introduce the variable varname)
\item a pattern {[newname/varname]} (meaning introduce {varname} and call it
{newname})
\item a pattern {[newname]} (meaning introduce the outermost variable and
call it {newname})
\item a final {*} (meaning introduce the remaining outermost universal
quantified variables)
\end{{itemize}}
\FAILURE
Fails if the string specifying the variables is ill-formed or if some of the
indicated variables are not present as outer universal quantifiers in the goal.
\EXAMPLE
Here we fix just the variable {a}:
{
# g `!x a. a + x = x + a`;;
# e (FIX_TAC "a");;
val it : goalstack = 1 subgoal (1 total)
`!x. a + x = x + a`
}
\noindent while here we rename one of the variables and fix all the others:
{
# g `!a b x. a + b + x = (a + b) + x`;;
# e (FIX_TAC "[d/x] *");;
val it : goalstack = 1 subgoal (1 total)
`a + b + d = (a + b) + d`
}
Here we fix an automatically generated variable and choose a meaningful name
for it
{
# g `(@x. x = 0) + 0 = 0`;;
# e SELECT_ELIM_TAC;;
val it : goalstack = 1 subgoal (1 total)
`!_75605. (!x. x = 0 ==> _75605 = 0) ==> _75605 + 0 = 0`
# e (FIX_TAC "[y]");;
val it : goalstack = 1 subgoal (1 total)
`(!x. x = 0 ==> y = 0) ==> y + 0 = 0`
}
