Edinburgh LCF(ID:8177/)

alternate simple view
Country: United Kingdom
Designed 1979


Milner's "mechanisation" of Scott's LCF, which was (quoting the Turing Award citation), "probably the first theoretically based yet practical tool for machine-assisted proof construction."

There are two kinds of base variables and constants in LCF. Those that range over individuals
and those that range over truth values.
