(** ** Polymorphic Lists *)

(** Up to this point, we've been working with lists of numbers.
    Programs also need to be able to manipulate lists whose elements
    are drawn from other types -- lists of strings, lists of booleans,
    lists of lists, etc.  We could define a new inductive datatype for
    each of these, for example... *)

Inductive boollist : Type :=
  | bool_nil : boollist
  | bool_cons : bool -> boollist -> boollist.

(** ... but this would quickly become tedious,
    partly because we have to make up different
    constructor names for each datatype but mostly because
    we would also need to define new versions of all our
    list manipulating functions ([length], [rev], etc.)
    for each new datatype definition. *)

(** To avoid all this repetition, Coq supports _polymorphic_
    inductive type definitions.  For example, here is a polymorphic
    list data type. *)

Inductive list (X:Type) : Type :=
  | nil : list X
  | cons : X -> list X -> list X.

(** This is exactly like the definition of [natlist] from the
    previous chapter, except that the [nat] argument to the [cons]
    constructor has been replaced by an arbitrary type [X], a binding
    for [X] has been added to the header, and the occurrences of
    [natlist] in the types of the constructors have been replaced by
    [list X].  (We're able to re-use the constructor names [nil] and
    [cons] because the earlier definition of [natlist] was inside of a
    [Module] definition that is now out of scope.) *)

(** With this definition, when we use the constructors [nil] and
    [cons] to build lists, we need to specify what sort of lists we
    are building -- that is, [nil] and [cons] are now "polymorphic
    constructors".  Observe the types of these constructors: *)

Check nil. 
Check cons. 

(** The "[forall X]" in these types should be read as an
    additional argument to the constructors that determines the
    expected types of the arguments that follow.  When [nil] and
    [cons] are used, these arguments are supplied in the same way as
    the others.  For example, the list containing [2] and [1] is
    written like this: *)

Check (cons nat 2 (cons nat 1 (nil nat))).

(** We can now go back and make polymorphic (or "generic")
    versions of all the list-processing functions that we wrote
    before.  Here is [length], for example: *)

Fixpoint length (X:Type) (l:list X) : nat := 
  match l with
  | nil      => 0
  | cons h t => S (length X t)
  end.

(** The uses of [nil] and [cons] in [match] patterns do not
    require any type annotations: we already know that the list [l]
    contains elements of type [X], so there's no reason to include [X]
    in the pattern.  (More formally, the type [X] is a parameter of
    the whole definition of [list], not of the individual
    constructors.)

    Just as we did with [nil] and [cons], to use [length] we apply it
    first to a type and then to its list argument: *)

Example test_length1 :
    length nat (cons nat 1 (cons nat 2 (nil nat))) = 2.
Proof. reflexivity.  Qed.

(** (We are writing [nil] and [cons] here because we haven't yet
    defined the [ [] ] and [::] notations.  We'll do that in a
    bit.) *)

(** To use our length with other kinds of lists, we simply
    instantiate it with an appropriate type parameter: *)

Example test_length2 :
    length bool (cons bool true (nil bool)) = 1.
Proof. reflexivity.  Qed.

Fixpoint app (X : Type) (l1 l2 : list X) 
                : (list X) := 
  match l1 with
  | nil      => l2
  | cons h t => cons X h (app X t l2)
  end.

Fixpoint snoc (X:Type) (l:list X) (v:X) : (list X) := 
  match l with
  | nil      => cons X v (nil X)
  | cons h t => cons X h (snoc X t v)
  end.

Fixpoint rev (X:Type) (l:list X) : list X := 
  match l with
  | nil      => nil X
  | cons h t => snoc X (rev X t) h
  end.

Example test_rev1 :
    rev nat (cons nat 1 (cons nat 2 (nil nat))) 
  = (cons nat 2 (cons nat 1 (nil nat))).
Proof. reflexivity.  Qed.

Example test_rev2: 
  rev bool (nil bool) = nil bool.
Proof. reflexivity.  Qed.

(** *** Argument Synthesis *)

(** Whenever we use a polymorphic function, we need to pass it
    one or more types in addition to its other arguments.  For
    example, the recursive call in the body of the [length] function
    above must pass along the type [X].  But this is a bit heavy and
    verbose: Since the second argument to [length] is a list of [X]s,
    it seems entirely obvious that the first argument can only be
    [X] -- why should we have to write it explicitly?

    Fortunately, Coq permits us to avoid this kind of redundancy.  In
    place of any type argument we can write the "implicit argument"
    [_], which can be read as "Please figure out for yourself what
    type belongs here."  More precisely, when Coq encounters a [_], it
    will attempt to "unify" all locally available information -- the
    type of the function being applied, the types of the other
    arguments, and the type expected by the context in which the
    application appears -- to determine what concrete type should
    replace the [_].

    Using implicit arguments, the [length] function can be written
    like this: *)

Fixpoint length' (X:Type) (l:list X) : nat := 
  match l with
  | nil      => 0
  | cons h t => S (length' _ t)
  end.

(** In this instance, the savings of writing [_] instead of [X] is
    small.  But in other cases the difference is significant.  For
    example, suppose we want to write down a list containing the
    numbers [1], [2], and [3].  Instead of writing this... *)

Definition list123'' := 
  cons nat 1 (cons nat 2 (cons nat 3 (nil nat))).

(** ...we can use argument synthesis to write this: *)

Definition list123 := cons _ 1 (cons _ 2 (cons _ 3 (nil _))).

(* ###################################################### *)
(** *** Implicit Arguments *)

(** To avoid writing too many [_]'s, we can also tell Coq that we
    _always_ want it to infer the type argument(s) of a given
    function. *)

Implicit Arguments nil [[X]].
Implicit Arguments cons [[X]].
Implicit Arguments length [[X]].
Implicit Arguments app [[X]].
Implicit Arguments rev [[X]].
Implicit Arguments snoc [[X]].

Check (length list123).  (* note: no _ *)

(** We can also conveniently declare an argument to be implicit
    while defining the function itself, by surrounding the argument in
    curly braces.  For example: *)

Fixpoint length'' {X:Type} (l:list X) : nat := 
  match l with
  | nil      => 0
  | cons h t => S (length'' t)
  end.

(** Note that in this case, we didn't even have to provide a
    type argument to the recursive call to [length'']. We will use
    this style whenever possible, although we will continue to use use
    explicit [Implicit Argument] declarations for [Inductive]
    constructors. *)

(** One small problem with declaring arguments [Implicit] is
    that, occasionally, there will not be enough local information to
    determine a type argument and we will need to tell Coq specially
    that we want to give it explicitly even though we've declared it
    to be [Implicit].  For example, if we write: *)

(* Definition mynil := nil. *)

(** Coq will give us an error, because it doesn't know what type
    argument to supply to [nil].  We can help it by providing an
    explicit type declaration: *)

Definition mynil : list nat := nil.

(** Alternatively, we can force the implicit arguments to be explicit by
   prefixing the name with [@]. *)

Check @nil.

Definition mynil' := @nil nat. 

(** Using argument synthesis and implicit arguments, we can
    define convenient notation for lists, as before.  Since we have
    made the constructor type arguments implicit, Coq will know to
    automatically infer the type when we use these. *)

Notation "x :: y" := (cons x y) 
                     (at level 60, right associativity).
Notation "[ ]" := nil.
Notation "[ x , .. , y ]" := (cons x .. (cons y []) ..).
Notation "x ++ y" := (app x y) 
                     (at level 60, right associativity).

(** Now lists can be written just the way we'd hope: *)

Definition list123' := [1, 2, 3].

    practice with polymorphism.  Fill in the definitions and complete
    the proofs below. *)

  (* FILL IN HERE *) admit.

(* ###################################################### *)
(** ** Polymorphic Pairs *)

(** Similarly, the type definition we gave above for pairs of
    numbers can be generalized to "polymorphic pairs": *)

Inductive prod (X Y : Type) : Type :=
  pair : X -> Y -> prod X Y.

Implicit Arguments pair [X Y].

(** As with lists, we make the type arguments implicit and define the
    familiar concrete notation. *)

Notation "( x , y )" := (pair x y).

(** We can also use the [Notation] mechanism to define the standard
    notation for pair _types_: *)

Notation "X * Y" := (prod X Y) : type_scope.

(** (The annotation [: type_scope] tells Coq that this abbreviation
    should be used when parsing types.) *)

(** The first and second projection functions now look pretty
    much as they would in any functional programming language. *)

Definition fst {X Y : Type} (p : X * Y) : X := 
  match p with (x,y) => x end.

Definition snd {X Y : Type} (p : X * Y) : Y := 
  match p with (x,y) => y end.

(** The following function takes two lists and combines them
    into a list of pairs.  (In many functional programming languages,
    it is called [zip].  We call it [combine] for consistency with
    Coq's standard library.) *)

Fixpoint combine {X Y : Type} (lx : list X) (ly : list Y) 
           : list (X*Y) :=
  match lx,ly with
  | [],_ => []
  | _,[] => []
  | x::tx, y::ty => (x,y) :: (combine tx ty)
  end.

(** **** Exercise: 1 star (combine_checks) *)
(** Try answering the following questions on paper and
    checking your answers in coq:
    - What is the type of [combine] (i.e., what does [Check 
      @combine] print?)
    - What does
[[
 Eval simpl in (combine [1,2] [false,false,true,true]).
]]
      print?   []
*)

(** **** Exercise: 2 stars *)
(** The function [split] is the inverse of combine: it takes a list of
    pairs and returns a pair of lists.  In many functional programing
    languages, this function is called "unzip".

    Uncomment the material below and fill in the definition of
    [split].  Make sure it passes the given unit tests. *)

(** ** Polymorphic Options *)

(** One last polymorphic type for now: "polymorphic options".
    The type declaration generalizes the one for [natoption] from the
    previous chapter: *)

Inductive option (X:Type) : Type :=
  | Some : X -> option X
  | None : option X.

Implicit Arguments Some [X]. 
Implicit Arguments None [X].

(** We can now rewrite the [index] function so that it works
    with any type of lists. *)

Fixpoint index 
             {X : Type} (n : nat)
             (l : list X) : option X :=
  match l with
  | [] => None

    [hd_opt] function from the last chapter. Be sure that it
    passes the unit tests below. *)

Definition hd_opt {X : Type} (l : list X)  : option X :=
  (* FILL IN HERE *) admit.

(** Once again, to force the implicit arguments to be explicit, 
    we can use [@] before the name of the function. *)

(** * Functions as Data *)

(* ###################################################### *)
(** ** Higher-Order Functions *)

(** Like many other modern programming languages -- including,
    of course, all "functional languages" -- Coq treats functions as
    first-class citizens: it allows functions to be passed as
    arguments to other functions, returned as results from other
    functions, stored in data structures, etc.  

    Functions that manipulate other functions are called
    "higher-order" functions.  Here's a simple one: *)

Definition doit3times {X:Type} (f:X->X) (n:X) : X := 
  f (f (f n)).

(** The argument [f] here is itself a function (from [X] to
    [X]); the body of [doit3times] applies [f] three times to some
    value [n]. *)
Check @doit3times.

Example test_doit3times: doit3times minustwo 9 = 3.
Proof. reflexivity.  Qed.

Example test_doit3times': doit3times negb true = false.
Proof. reflexivity.  Qed.

(* ###################################################### *)
(** ** Partial Application *)

(** In fact, the multiple-argument functions we have already
    seen are also examples of higher-order functions.  For instance,
    the type of [plus] is [nat -> nat -> nat]. *)

Check plus.

(** Since [->] is _right-associative_, this type can
    equivalently be written [nat -> (nat -> nat)] -- i.e., it can be
    read as saying that "[plus] is a one-argument function that takes
    a [nat] and returns a one-argument function that takes another
    [nat] and returns a [nat]."  In the examples above, we have always
    applied [plus] to both of its arguments at once, but if we like we
    can supply just the first.  This is called "partial
    application." *)

Definition plus3 := plus 3.
Check plus3.

Proof. reflexivity.  Qed.
Example test_plus3' :   doit3times plus3 0 = 9.

Example test_plus3'' :  doit3times (plus 3) 0 = 9.

(* ###################################################### *)
(** ** Digression: Currying *)

(** **** Exercise: 2 stars, optional (currying) *)
(** In Coq, a function [f : A -> B -> C] really has the type [A
    -> (B -> C)].  That is, if you give [f] a value of type [A], it
    will give you function [f' : B -> C].  If you then give [f'] a
    value of type [B], it will return a value of type [C].  This
    allows for partial application, as in [plus3].  Processing a list
    of arguments with functions that return functions is called
    "currying", named in honor of the logician Haskell Curry.

    Conversely, we can reinterpret the type [A -> B -> C] as [(A *
    B) -> C].  This is called "uncurrying".  In an uncurried binary
    function, both arguments must be given at once as a pair; there is
    no partial application. *)

(** We can define currying as follows: *)

Definition prod_curry {X Y Z : Type}
  (f : X * Y -> Z) (x : X) (y : Y) : Z := f (x, y).

(** As an exercise, define its inverse, [prod_uncurry].  Then prove
    the theorems below to show that the two are inverses. *)

Definition prod_uncurry {X Y Z : Type}
  (f : X -> Y -> Z) (p : X * Y) : Z :=
  (* FILL IN HERE *) admit.

(** (Thought exercise: before running these commands, can you
    calculate the types of [prod_curry] and [prod_uncurry]?) *)
Check @prod_curry.
Check @prod_uncurry.

Theorem uncurry_curry : forall (X Y Z : Type) (f : X -> Y -> Z) x y,
  prod_curry (prod_uncurry f) x y = f x y.
Proof.
  (* FILL IN HERE *) Admitted.

Theorem curry_uncurry : forall (X Y Z : Type) (f : (X * Y) -> Z) (p : X * Y),
  prod_uncurry (prod_curry f) p = f p.

(* ###################################################### *)
(** ** Filter *)

(** Here is a useful higher-order function, which takes a list
    of [X]s and a predicate on [X] (a function from [X] to [bool]) and
    "filters" the list, returning a new list containing just those
    elements for which the predicate returns [true]. *)

Fixpoint filter {X:Type} (test: X->bool) (l:list X) 
                : (list X) :=
  match l with
  | []     => []
  | h :: t => if test h then h :: (filter test t)
                        else       filter test t
  end.

(** For example, if we apply [filter] to the predicate [evenb]
    and a list of numbers [l], it returns a list containing just the
    even members of [l]. *)

Example test_filter1: filter evenb [1,2,3,4] = [2,4].
Proof. reflexivity.  Qed.

Definition length_is_1 {X : Type} (l : list X) : bool :=
  beq_nat (length l) 1.

Example test_filter2: 
    filter length_is_1
           [ [1, 2], [3], [4], [5,6,7], [], [8] ]
  = [ [3], [4], [8] ].
Proof. reflexivity.  Qed.

(** We can use [filter] to give a concise version of the
    [countoddmembers] function from [Lists.v]. *)

Definition countoddmembers' (l:list nat) : nat := 
  length (filter oddb l).

Example test_countoddmembers'1:   countoddmembers' [1,0,3,1,4,5] = 4.

Proof. reflexivity.  Qed.
Example test_countoddmembers'3:   countoddmembers' nil = 0.
Proof. reflexivity.  Qed.

(* ###################################################### *)
(** ** Anonymous Functions *)

(** It was annoying to be forced to define the function
    [length_is_1] and give it a name just to be able to pass it as an
    argument to [filter], since we will probably never use it again.
    This is not an isolated example.  When using higher-order
    functions, we will often pass as arguments "one-off" functions
    that we will never use again; having to give each of these
    functions a name would be tedious.

    However, there is a solution. It is also possible to construct a
    function "on the fly" without declaring it at the top level or
    giving it a name; this is analogous to the notation we've been
    using for writing down constant lists, etc. *)

Example test_anon_fun: 
  doit3times (fun (n:nat) => n * n) 2 = 256.
Proof. reflexivity.  Qed.

(** The expression [fun (n:nat) => n * n] here can be read
    "The function that, given a number [n], returns [n * n]."

    We don't actually need to bother declaring the type of the
    argument [n]; Coq can see that it must be [nat] by looking at the
    context.  This convenient capability is called _type inference_. *)

Example test_anon_fun': 
  doit3times (fun n => n * n) 2 = 256.

   X], [partition] should return a pair of lists.  The first member
   the pair is the sublist of the original list containing the
   elements that satisfy the test, and the second is the sublist
   containing those that fail the test.  The order of elements in the
   two sublists should be the same as their order in the original
   list.

(** The element types of the input and output lists need not be

(** ** Fold *)

(** An even more powerful higher-order function is called [fold].  It
    is the inspiration for the "[reduce]" operation that lies at the
    heart of Google's map/reduce distributed programming framework. *)

Fixpoint fold {X Y:Type} (f: X->Y->Y) (l:list X) (b:Y) : Y :=
  match l with
  | nil => b
  | h :: t => f h (fold f t b)
  end.

(** Intuitively, the behavior of the [fold] operation is to
    insert a given binary operator [f] between every pair of elements
    in a given list.  For example, [ fold plus [1,2,3,4] ] intuitively
    means [1+2+3+4].  To make this precise, we also need a "starting
    element" that serves as the initial second input to [f].  So, for
    example,
[[
   fold plus [1,2,3,4] 0
]]
    yields
[[
   1 + (2 + (3 + (4 + 0))).
]]

    situation where it would be useful for [X] and [Y] to be
    different? *)

(** ** Functions For Constructing Functions *)

(** Most of the higher-order functions we have talked about so
    far take functions as _arguments_.  Now let's look at some
    examples involving _returning_ functions as the results of other
    functions.

    To begin, here is a function that takes a value [x] (drawn from
    some type [X]) and returns a function from [nat] to [X] that
    yields [x] whenever it is called. *)

Definition constfun {X: Type} (x: X) : nat->X := 
  fun (k:nat) => x.

Definition ftrue := constfun true.

Example constfun_example1 : ftrue 0 = true.
Proof. reflexivity. Qed.

Example constfun_example2 : (constfun 5) 99 = 5.
Proof. reflexivity. Qed.

(** Similarly, but a bit more interestingly, here is a function
    that takes a function [f] from numbers to some type [X], a number
    [k], and a value [x], and constructs a function that behaves
    exactly like [f] except that, when called with the argument [k],
    it returns [x]. *)

Definition override {X: Type} (f: nat->X) (k:nat) (x:X) : nat->X:=
  fun (k':nat) => if beq_nat k k' then x else f k'.

(** For example, we can apply [override] twice to obtain a
    function from numbers to booleans that returns [false] on [1] and
    [3] and returns [true] on all other arguments. *)

(** The precise behavior of the [simpl] tactic is subtle: even
    expert Coq users tend to work with it by just trying it and seeing
    what it does in particular situations, rather than trying to
    predict in advance.  However, one point is worth noting: [simpl]
    never expands names that have been declared as [Definition]s.

    For example, these two expressions do not simplify to the same
    thing.

(** ** Inversion *)

(** Recall the definition of natural numbers:
[[
     Inductive nat : Type :=
       | O : nat
       | S : nat -> nat.
]]
   It is clear from this definition that every number has one of two
   forms: either it is the constructor [O] or it is built by applying
   the constructor [S] to another number.  But there is more here than
   meets the eye: implicit in the definition (and in our informal
   understanding of how datatype declarations work in other
   programming languages) are two other facts:

   - The constructor [S] is "injective".  That is, the only way we can
     have [S n = S m] is if [n = m].

   - The constructors [O] and [S] are "disjoint".  That is, [O] is not
     equal to [S n] for any [n].

   Similar principles apply to all inductively defined types: all
   constructors are injective, and the values built from distinct
   constructors are never equal.  For lists, the [cons] constructor is
   injective and [nil] is different from every non-empty list.  For
   booleans, [true] and [false] are unequal.  (Since neither [true]
   nor [false] take any arguments, their injectivity is not an issue.)
 *)

(** Coq provides a tactic, called [inversion], that allows us to
    exploit these principles in making proofs.
 
    The [inversion] tactic is used like this.  Suppose [H] is a
    hypothesis in the context (or a previously proven lemma) of the
    form
[[
      c a1 a2 ... an = d b1 b2 ... bm
]]
    for some constructors [c] and [d] and arguments [a1 ... a2] and
    [b1 ... bm].

    Then [inversion H] instructs Coq to "invert" this equality to
    extract the information it holds about these terms:

    - If [c] and [d] are the same constructor, then we know, by the
      injectivity of this constructor, that [a1 = b1], [a2 = b2],
      etc.; [inversion H] adds these facts to the context, and tries
      to use them to rewrite the goal.

    - If [c] and [d] are different constructors, then the hypothesis
      [G] is contradictory.  That is, a false assumption has crept
      into the context, and this means that any goal whatsoever is
      provable!  In this case, [inversion H] marks the current goal as
      completed and pops it off the goal stack. *)(** The
      [inversion] tactic is probably easier to understand by seeing it
      in action than from general descriptions like the above.  Below
      you will find example theorems which demonstrate the use of
      [inversion] and exercises to test your understanding. *)

(** ** Using Tactics on Hypotheses *)

(** By default, most tactics work on the goal formula and leave
    the context unchanged.  But most tactics have a variant that
    performs a similar operation on a statement in the context.

    For example, the tactic [simpl in H] performs simplification in
    the hypothesis named [H] in the context. *)

Theorem S_inj : forall (n m : nat) (b : bool),
     beq_nat (S n) (S m) = b  ->
     beq_nat n m = b. 
Proof.
  intros n m b H. simpl in H. apply H. 
Qed.

(** Similarly, the tactic [apply L in H] matches some
    conditional statement [L] (of the form [L1 -> L2], say) against a
    hypothesis [H] in the context.  However, unlike ordinary
    [apply] (which rewrites a goal matching [L2] into a subgoal [L1]),
    [apply L in H] matches [H] against [L1] and, if successful,
    replaces it with [L2].
 
    In other words, [apply L in H] gives us a form of "forward
    reasoning" -- from [L1 -> L2] and a hypothesis matching [L1], it
    gives us a hypothesis matching [L2].
 
    By contrast, [apply L] is "backward reasoning" -- it says that if
    we know [L1->L2] and we are trying to prove [L2], it suffices to
    prove [L1].  Here is a variant of a proof from above, using
    forward reasoning throughout instead of backward reasoning. *)

(** ** The [remember] Tactic *)


(** We have seen how the [destruct] tactic can be used to
    perform case analysis of the results of arbitrary computations.
    If [e] is an expression whose type is some inductively defined
    type [T], then, for each constructor [c] of [T], [destruct e]
    generates a subgoal in which all occurrences of [e] (in the goal
    and in the context) are replaced by [c].

    Sometimes, however, this substitution process loses information
    that we need in order to complete the proof.  For example, suppose
    we define a function [sillyfun1] like this: *)

Definition sillyfun1 (n : nat) : bool :=
  if beq_nat n 3 then true
  else if beq_nat n 5 then true
  else false.

(** And suppose that we want to convince Coq of the rather
    obvious observation that [sillyfun1 n] yields [true] only when [n]
    is odd.  By analogy with the proofs we did with [sillyfun] above,
    it is natural to start the proof like this: *)

Theorem sillyfun1_odd_FAILED : forall (n : nat),
     sillyfun1 n = true ->
     oddb n = true.
Proof.
  intros n eq. unfold sillyfun1 in eq.
  destruct (beq_nat n 3).
  (* stuck... *)
Admitted.

(** We get stuck at this point because the context does not
    contain enough information to prove the goal!  The problem is that
    the substitution peformed by [destruct] is too brutal -- it threw
    away every occurrence of [beq_nat n 3], but we need to keep at
    least one of these because we need to be able to reason that
    since, in this branch of the case analysis, [beq_nat n 3 = true],
    it must be that [n = 3], from which it follows that [n] is odd.

    What we would really like is not to use [destruct] directly on
    [beq_nat n 3] and substitute away all occurrences of this
    expression, but rather to use [destruct] on something else that is
    _equal_ to [beq_nat n 3] -- e.g., if we had a variable that we
    knew was equal to [beq_nat n 3], we could [destruct] this variable
    instead.

    The [remember] tactic allows us to introduce such a variable. *)

    the fact that equality is transitive. *)

Theorem trans_eq : forall {X:Type} (n m o : X),
  n = m -> m = o -> n = o.
Proof.
  intros X n m o eq1 eq2. rewrite -> eq1. rewrite -> eq2. 
  reflexivity.
Qed.

(** Now, we should be able to use [trans_eq] to
    prove the above example.  However, to do this we need
    a slight refinement of the [apply] tactic. *)

Example trans_eq_example' : forall (a b c d e f : nat),
     [a,b] = [c,d] ->
     [c,d] = [e,f] ->
     [a,b] = [e,f].
Proof.
  intros a b c d e f eq1 eq2. 
  (* If we simply tell Coq [apply trans_eq] at this point,
     it can tell (by matching the goal against the
     conclusion of the lemma) that it should instantiate [X]
     with [ [nat] ], [n] with [[a,b]], and [o] with [[e,f]].
     However, the matching process doesn't determine an
     instantiation for [m]: we have to supply one explicitly
     by adding [with (m:=[c,d])] to the invocation of
     [apply]. *)
  apply trans_eq with (m:=[c,d]). apply eq1. apply eq2. 
Qed.

(**  Actually, we usually don't have to include the name [m]
    in the [with] clause; Coq is often smart enough to
    figure out which instantiation we're giving. We could
    instead write: apply trans_eq with [c,d]. *)

(** **** Exercise: 3 stars (forall_exists_challenge) *)
(** Challenge problem: Define two recursive [Fixpoints],
    [forallb] and [existsb].  The first checks whether every
    element in a list satisfies a given predicate:
[[
      forallb oddb [1,3,5,7,9] = true

      forallb negb [false,false] = true
  
      forallb evenb [0,2,4,5] = false
  
      forallb (beq_nat 5) [] = true
]]
    [existsb] checks whether there exists an element in the
    list that satisfies a given predicate:
[[
      existsb (beq_nat 5) [0,2,3,6] = false
 
      existsb (andb true) [true,true,false] = true
 
      existsb oddb [1,0,0,0,0,3] = true

    Next, create a _nonrecursive_ [Definition], [existsb'], using
