Topic: Rewriting with have


Andre Knispel (Aug 14 2020 at 18:40):

If I write have x := t, can I get a proof of x = t somehow? Or do I need to do something else for that?

Heather Macbeth (Aug 14 2020 at 18:41):

have hides this, but let (same syntax) doesn't.

Kevin Buzzard (Aug 14 2020 at 18:46):

even better, set x := t with hxt will give you a name for the proof. With let the equality is definitional but doesn't have a name.

Andre Knispel (Aug 14 2020 at 18:46):

Ah, set is perfect!
