Topic: Structure which extends two different structures
Dean Young (Mar 10 2023 at 14:56):
Is it possible to make a structure which extends two different structures at once?

If two structures extend a common substructure, then does their mutual extension know not to duplicate the items in the common substructure?

Yes

If those fields have the same names.

@Kind Bubble, have you considered just trying this and seeing what happens?
Eric Wieser (Mar 11 2023 at 23:15):
Lean will give you a much faster answer to "what does this code do" than zulip will.
Jireh Loreaux (Mar 11 2023 at 23:49):
To follow-up on Eric's point, they way you would check this is:
structure foo :=
(x : nat)
(y : nat)
structure bar :=
(y : nat)
(z : nat)
structure baz extends foo, bar
#print baz
