noncomputable theory

-- the rest of this file doesn't need the `noncomputable` keyword (modulo caveats)

Is there an equivalent

meta theory -- make all the defs in this file `meta`

Johan Commelin (Sep 05 2021 at 07:21):

Actually, can I create a new command mdef that does meta def? (I'll change mdef to laat locally. Which is the dutch word for "let".)
I want someone to play with lean without bothering about well-founded recursion.

Johan Commelin (Sep 05 2021 at 16:05):

Is this even possible in Lean 3, or should I use Lean 4 for this?

Mario Carneiro (Sep 05 2021 at 19:59):

it's not implemented in lean 3, but it might be possible to do
