Topic: Prop-valued encodable
Yury G. Kudryashov (Oct 25 2021 at 21:43):
I think that we need a Prop-valued version of docs#encodable. The main reason for me is that we'll be able to have an instance from [fintype α]
to [prop_encodable α]
(of course, we need a better name).
Yury G. Kudryashov (Oct 25 2021 at 21:43):
And most lemmas about countable unions etc should take this new class as an argument.

is_countable
?
Yury G. Kudryashov (Oct 25 2021 at 21:44):
Or countable
with set.countable
made protected
.
Yury G. Kudryashov (Oct 25 2021 at 21:45):
(we have this for set.subsingleton
and set.nonempty
)
Eric Wieser (Oct 25 2021 at 22:00):
Could we rename encodable
to has_encoding
to free up the first name?
Eric Wieser (Oct 25 2021 at 22:00):
I guess countable is better to mathematicians anyway
