---------------------------------------------------------------------- AND_EL_CONV (listLib) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- AND_EL_CONV : conv SYNOPSIS Computes by inference the result of taking the conjunction of the elements of a boolean list. KEYWORDS conversion, list. DESCRIBE For any object language list of the form {“[x1;x2;...;xn]”}, where {x1}, {x2}, ..., {xn} are boolean expressions, the result of evaluating AND_EL_CONV “AND_EL [x1;x2;...;xn]” is the theorem |- AND_EL [x1;x2;...;xn] = b where {b} is either the boolean constant that denotes the conjunction of the elements of the list, or a conjunction of those {xi} that are not boolean constants. EXAMPLE - AND_EL_CONV “AND_EL [T;F;F;T]”; |- AND_EL [T;F;F;T] = F - AND_EL_CONV “AND_EL [T;T;T]”; |- AND_EL [T;T;T] = T - AND_EL_CONV “AND_EL [T;x;y]”; |- AND_EL [T; x; y] = x /\ y - AND_EL_CONV “AND_EL [x;F;y]”; |- AND_EL [x; F; y] = F FAILURE {AND_EL_CONV tm} fails if {tm} is not of the form described above. ----------------------------------------------------------------------
