# Perform the proofs under the assumption that n is a nonnegative integer input constant. n stands # for the total number of input sets input: n -> integer. assume: n >= 0. # s/2 is the input predicate defining the sets for which the program searches for exact covers input: s/2. # Only the in/1 predicate is an actual output, s/2 is an input and covered/1 and is_int/1 are # auxiliary output: in_cover/1. # Perform the proofs under the assumption that the second parameter of s/2 (the number of the set) # is always an integer assume: forall Y (exists X s(X, Y) -> exists I (Y = I and I >= 1 and I <= n)). # Only valid sets can be included in the solution spec: forall Y (in_cover(Y) -> exists I (Y = I and I >= 1 and I <= n)). # If an element is contained in an input set, it must be covered by all solutions spec: forall X (exists Y s(X, Y) -> exists Y (s(X, Y) and in_cover(Y))). # Elements may not be covered by two input sets spec: forall Y, Z (exists X (s(X, Y) and s(X, Z)) and in_cover(Y) and in_cover(Z) -> Y = Z).
