Topic: How is 1,2,3 defined in Lean?


YH (Dec 13 2019 at 19:42):

3 is not definitionally equal to succ(2)? I am surprised. How am I supposed to prove 0 < 3 in this case.

Reid Barton (Dec 13 2019 at 19:44):

3 may or may not be definitionally equal to succ 2, depending on what type you are talking about.

Reid Barton (Dec 13 2019 at 19:44):

But the usual answer to the second question is by norm_num.

YH (Dec 13 2019 at 19:45):

Oh great. Thanks.
