def Lean.Parser.Command.docComment : Lean.Parser.Parser

A docComment parses a "documentation comment" like /-- foo -/. This is not treated like a regular comment (that is, as whitespace); it is parsed and forms part of the syntax tree structure.

A docComment node contains a /-- atom and then the remainder of the comment, foo -/ in this example. Use TSyntax.getDocString to extract the body text from a doc string syntax node.

def Lean.Parser.Term.hole : Lean.Parser.Parser

A hole (or placeholder term), which stands for an unknown term that is expected to be inferred based on context. For example, in @id _ Nat.zero, the _ must be the type of Nat.zero, which is Nat.

The way this works is that holes create fresh metavariables. The elaborator is allowed to assign terms to metavariables while it is checking definitional equalities. This is often known as unification.

Normally, all holes must be solved for. However, there are a few contexts where this is not necessary:

• In match patterns, holes are catch-all patterns.
• In some tactics, such as refine' and apply, unsolved-for placeholders become new goals.

Related concept: implicit parameters are automatically filled in with holes during the elaboration process.

See also ?m syntax (synthetic holes).

Equations

• One or more equations did not get rendered due to their size.

def Lean.Parser.Term.syntheticHole : Lean.Parser.Parser

A synthetic hole (or synthetic placeholder), which stands for an unknown term that should be synthesized using tactics.

• ?_ creates a fresh metavariable with an auto-generated name.
• ?m either refers to a pre-existing metavariable named m or creates a fresh metavariable with that name.

In particular, the synthetic hole syntax creates "synthetic opaque metavariables", the same kind of metavariable used to represent goals in the tactic state.

Synthetic holes are similar to holes in that _ also creates metavariables, but synthetic opaque metavariables have some different properties:

• In tactics such as refine, only synthetic holes yield new goals.
• During elaboration, unification will not solve for synthetic opaque metavariables, they are "opaque". This is to prevent counterintuitive behavior such as disappearing goals.
• When synthetic holes appear under binders, they capture local variables using a more complicated mechanism known as delayed assignment.

Delayed assigned metavariables

This section gives an overview of some technical details of synthetic holes, which you should feel free to skip. Understanding delayed assignments is mainly useful for those who are working on tactics and other metaprogramming. It is included here until there is a suitable place for it in the reference manual.

When a synthetic hole appears under a binding construct, such as for example fun (x : α) (y : β) => ?s, the system creates a delayed assignment. This consists of

1. A metavariable ?m of type (x : α) → (y : β) → γ x y whose local context is the local context outside the fun, where γ x y is the type of ?s. Recall that x and y appear in the local context of ?s.
2. A delayed assigment record associating ?m to ?s and the variables #[x, y] in the local context of ?s

Then, this function elaborates as fun (x : α) (y : β) => ?m x y, where one should understand x and y here as being De Bruijn indexes, since Lean uses the locally nameless encoding of lambda calculus.

Once ?s is fully solved for, in the sense that after metavariable instantiation it is a metavariable-free term e, then we can make the assignment ?m := fun (x' : α) (y' : β) => e[x := x', y := y']. (Implementation note: Lean only instantiates full applications ?m x' y' of delayed assigned metavariables, to skip forming this function.) This delayed assignment mechanism is essential to the operation of basic tactics like intro, and a good mental model is that it is a way to "apply" the metavariable ?s by substituting values in for some of its local variables. While it would be easier to immediately assign ?s := ?m x y, delayed assigment preserves ?s as an unsolved-for metavariable with a local context that still contains x and y, which is exactly what tactics like intro need.

By default, delayed assigned metavariables pretty print with what they are delayed assigned to. The delayed assigned metavariables themselves can be pretty printed using set_option pp.mvars.delayed true.

For more information, see the "Gruesome details" module docstrings in Lean.MetavarContext.

The ⋯ term denotes a term that was omitted by the pretty printer. The presence of ⋯ in pretty printer output is controlled by the pp.deepTerms and pp.proofs options, and these options can be further adjusted using pp.deepTerms.threshold and pp.proofs.threshold.

It is only meant to be used for pretty printing. However, in case it is copied and pasted from the Infoview, ⋯ logs a warning and elaborates like _.

def Lean.Parser.Term.strictImplicitBinder (requireType : Bool := false) : Lean.Parser.Parser

Strict-implicit binder, like ⦃x y : A⦄ or ⦃x y⦄. In contrast to { ... } implicit binders, strict-implicit binders do not automatically insert a _ placeholder until at least one subsequent explicit parameter is specified. Do not use strict-implicit binders unless there is a subsequent explicit parameter. Assuming this rule is followed, for fully applied expressions implicit and strict-implicit binders have the same behavior.

Example: If h : ∀ ⦃x : A⦄, x ∈ s → p x and hs : y ∈ s, then h by itself elaborates to itself without inserting _ for the x : A parameter, and h hs has type p y. In contrast, if h' : ∀ {x : A}, x ∈ s → p x, then h by itself elaborates to have type ?m ∈ s → p ?m with ?m a fresh metavariable.

def Lean.Parser.Term.instBinder : Lean.Parser.Parser

Instance-implicit binder, like [C] or [inst : C]. In regular applications without @ explicit mode, it is automatically inserted and solved for by typeclass inference for the specified class C.

def Lean.Parser.Term.match : Lean.Parser.Parser

Pattern matching. match e, ... with | p, ... => f | ... matches each given term e against each pattern p of a match alternative. When all patterns of an alternative match, the match term evaluates to the value of the corresponding right-hand side f with the pattern variables bound to the respective matched values. If used as match h : e, ... with | p, ... => f | ..., h : e = p is available within f.

When not constructing a proof, match does not automatically substitute variables matched on in dependent variables' types. Use match (generalizing := true) ... to enforce this.

Syntax quotations can also be used in a pattern match. This matches a Syntax value against quotations, pattern variables, or _.

Quoted identifiers only match identical identifiers - custom matching such as by the preresolved names only should be done explicitly.

Syntax.atoms are ignored during matching by default except when part of a built-in literal. For users introducing new atoms, we recommend wrapping them in dedicated syntax kinds if they should participate in matching. For example, in

syntax "c" ("foo" <|> "bar") ...

foo and bar are indistinguishable during matching, but in

syntax foo := "foo"
syntax "c" (foo <|> "bar") ...

they are not.

def Lean.Parser.Term.borrowed : Lean.Parser.Parser

Indicates that an argument to a function marked @[extern] is borrowed.

Being borrowed only affects the ABI and runtime behavior of the function when compiled or interpreted. From the perspective of Lean's type system, this annotation has no effect. It similarly has no effect on functions not marked @[extern].

When a function argument is borrowed, the function does not consume the value. This means that the function will not decrement the value's reference count or deallocate it, and the caller is responsible for doing so.

let double := fun x => 2*x
double (double 3)

def Lean.Parser.Termination.terminationBy : Lean.Parser.Parser

Specify a termination argument for recursive functions.

termination_by a - b

indicates that termination of the currently defined recursive function follows because the difference between the arguments a and b decreases.

If the function takes further argument after the colon, you can name them as follows:

def example (a : Nat) : Nat → Nat → Nat :=
termination_by b c => a - b

By default, a termination_by clause will cause the function to be constructed using well-founded recursion. The syntax termination_by structural a (or termination_by structural _ c => c) indicates the function is expected to be structural recursive on the argument. In this case the body of the termination_by clause must be one of the function's parameters.

If omitted, a termination argument will be inferred. If written as termination_by?, the inferrred termination argument will be suggested.

def Lean.Parser.Term.unsafe : Lean.Parser.Parser

unsafe t : α is an expression constructor which allows using unsafe declarations inside the body of t : α, by creating an auxiliary definition containing t and using implementedBy to wrap it in a safe interface. It is required that α is nonempty for this to be sound, but even beyond that, an unsafe block should be carefully inspected for memory safety because the compiler is unable to guarantee the safety of the operation.

For example, the evalExpr function is unsafe, because the compiler cannot guarantee that when you call evalExpr Foo ``Foo e that the type Foo corresponds to the name Foo, but in a particular use case, we can ensure this, so unsafe (evalExpr Foo ``Foo e) is a correct usage.

The extended field notation e.f is roughly short for T.f e where T is the type of e. More precisely,

• if e is of a function type, e.f is translated to Function.f (p := e) where p is the first explicit parameter of function type
• if e is of a named type T ... and there is a declaration T.f (possibly from export), e.f is translated to T.f (p := e) where p is the first explicit parameter of type T ...
• otherwise, if e is of a structure type, the above is repeated for every base type of the structure.

def Lean.Parser.Term.identProjKind : Lean.Name

Syntax kind for syntax nodes representing the field of a projection in the InfoTree. Specifically, the InfoTree node for a projection s.f contains a child InfoTree node with syntax (Syntax.node .none identProjKind #[`f]).

This is necessary because projection syntax cannot always be detected purely syntactically (s.f may refer to either the identifier s.f or a projection s.f depending on the available context).

def Lean.Parser.Term.subst : Lean.Parser.TrailingParser

h ▸ e is a macro built on top of Eq.rec and Eq.symm definitions. Given h : a = b and e : p a, the term h ▸ e has type p b. You can also view h ▸ e as a "type casting" operation where you change the type of e by using h.

The macro tries both orientations of h. If the context provides an expected type, it rewrites the expected type, else it rewrites the type of e`.
