Topic: Error import tactic


Gemma Crowe (Jun 22 2021 at 10:47):

Hello! I'm very new to Lean and going through the YouTube videos from the workshop last year. Could I get some help? Please send to a different chat topic if I'm asking in the wrong place.

I've been going through the proof from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b59fpAJ8Mfs and my code comes up with an error when I add
import tactic.linarith

It's saying this is an invalid import command, any ideas why? Everything else works in the proof up to then.

Thanks!

Could you post a copy of your code (see also #backticks for tips on how to format it) and the complete error message?

And welcome to the Zulip chat, you're definitely asking in the right place here.

sometimes Lean gets confused, can you try the restart Lean command one time first?

Gemma Crowe (Jun 22 2021 at 10:52):

@Eric Rodriguez that worked! I just restarted it and it's all fine now, thanks! Does this happen a lot with Lean, that it gets confused?

Eric Rodriguez (Jun 22 2021 at 10:53):

yeah, I find that sometimes working with new files it does that, not sure why...
