+(* The only primitive data types of Matita are dependent products and universes.
+So far every other user defined data type has been an inductive type. An
+inductive type is declared by giving its list of constructors (or introduction
+rules in the case of predicates). An inhabitant of an inductive type is obtained
+composing together a finite number of constructors and data of other types,
+according to the type of the constructors. Therefore all inhabitants of inductive
+types are essentially finite objects. Natural numbers, lists, trees, states of
+a DFA, letters of an alphabet are all finite and can be defined inductively.
+
+If you think of an inhabitant of an inductive type as a tree of a certain shape,
+whose nodes are constructors, the only trees can be represented are trees of
+finite height. Note, however, that it is possible to have trees of infinite
+width by putting in the argument of a constructor of a type I an enumeration
+of elements of I (e.g. ℕ → I). *)

+etc. One possible representation, used in mathematics since a long time, is
+to describe an infinite object by means of an infinite collection of

+(*** Infinite data types as coinductive types ***)
+
+(* All the previous examples were handled very easily via sequences
+ declared as functions. A few critics can be made to this approach though:
+ 1. the sequence allows for random access. In many situations, however, the
+ elements of the sequence are meant to be read one after the other, in
+ increasing order of their position. Moreover, the elements are meant to be
+ consumed (read) linearly, i.e. just once. This suggests a more efficient
+ implementation where sequences are implemented with state machines that
+ emit the next value and enter a new state every time they are read. Indeed,
+ some programming languages like OCaml differentiate (possibly infinite)
+ lists, that are immutable, from mutable streams whose only access operation
+ yields the head and turns the stream into its tail. Data streams read from
+ the network are a typical example of streams: the previously read values are
+ not automatically memoized and are lost if not saved when read. Files on
+ disk are also usually read via streams to avoid keeping all of them in main
+ memory. Another typical case where streams are used is that of diverging
+ computations: in place of generating at once an infinite sequence of values,
+ a function is turned into a stream and asking the next element of the stream
+ runs one more iteration of the function to produce the next output (often
+ an approximation).
+ 2. if a sequence computes the n-th entry by recursively calling itself on every
+ entry less than n, accessing the n-th entry requires re-computation of all
+ entries in position ≤ n, which is very inefficient.
+ 3. by representing an infinite object as a collection of approximations, the
+ structure of the object is lost. This was not evident in the previous
+ examples because in all cases the intrinsic structure of the datatype was
+ just that of being ordered and sequences capture the order well. Imagine,
+ however, that we want to represent an infinite binary tree of elements of
+ type A with the previous technique. We need to associate to each position
+ in the infinite tree an element of type A. A position in the tree is itself
+ a path from the root to the node of interest. Therefore the infinite tree
+ is represented as the function (ℕ → 𝔹) → A where 𝔹 are the booleans and the
+ tree structure is already less clear. Suppose now that the binary tree may
+ not be full, i.e. some nodes can have less than two children. Representing
+ such a tree is definitely harder. We may for example use the data type
+ (N → 𝔹) → option A where None would be associated to the position
+ b1 ... bn if a node in such position does not exist. However, we would need
+ to add the invariant that if b1 ... bn is undefined (i.e. assigned to None),
+ so are all suffixes b1 ... bn b_{n+1} ... b_{n+j}.
+
+ The previous observations suggest the need for primitive infinite datatypes
+ in the language, usually called coinductive types or codata. Matita allows
+ to declare coinductive type with the same syntax used for inductive types,
+ just replacing the keywork inductive with coinductive. Semantically, the two
+ declarations differ because a coinductive type also contains infinite
+ inhabitants that respect the typechecking rules.

+(* Coinductive types can be inhabited by infinite data using coinductive

+ definitions is the same of let rec definitions, but for the declarations
+ of the recursive argument. While let rec definitions are recursive definition
+ that are strictly decreasing on the recursive argument, let corec definitions
+ are productive recursive definitions. A recursive definition is productive
+ if, when fully applied to its arguments, it reduces in a finite amount of time
+ to a constructor of a coinductive type.
+
+ Let's see some simple examples of coinductive definitions of corecursive
+ streamseqs. *)

+ of the streamseq and the tail of the streamseq is the automaton with
+ state (S n). Therefore obtaining the n-th tail of the stream requires O(n)
+ operation, but every further access to its value only costs O(1). Moreover,
+ in the future the implementation of Matita could automatically memoize
+ streams so that obtaining the n-th element would also be an O(1) operation
+ if the same element was previously accessed at least once. This is what

+(***** Intermezzo: the dynamics of coinductive data ********)
+
+(* Let corec definitions, like let rec definitions, are a form of recursive
+ definition where the definiens occurs in the definiendum. Matita compares
+ types up to reduction and reduction always allows the expansion of non recursive
+ definitions. If it also allowed the expansion of recursive definitions, reduction
+ could diverge and type checking would become undecidable. For example,
+ we defined all_zeros as "sscons … 0 all_zeros". If the system expanded all
+ occurrences of all_zeros, it would expand it forever to
+ "sscons … 0 (sscons … 0 (sscons … 0 …))".
+
+ In order to avoid divergence, recursive definitions are only expanded when a
+ certain condition is met. In the case of a let-rec defined function f that is
+ recursive on its n-th argument, f is only expanded when it occurs in an
+ application (f t1 ... tn ...) and tn is (the application of) a constructor.
+ Termination is guaranteed by the combination of this restriction and f being
+ guarded by destructors: the application (f t1 ... tn ...) can reduce to a term
+ that contains another application (f t1' ... tn' ...) but the size of tn'
+ (roughly the number of nested constructors) will be smaller than the size of tn
+ eventually leading to termination.
+
+ Dual restrictions are put on let corec definitions. If f is a let-rec defined
+ term, f is only expanded when it occurs in the term "match f t1 ... tn with ...".
+ To better see the duality, that is not syntactically perfect, note that: in
+ the recursive case f destructs terms and is expanded only when applied to a
+ constructor; in the co-recursive case f constructs terms and is expanded only
+ when it becomes argument of the match destructor. Termination is guaranteed
+ by the combination of this restriction and f being productive: the term
+ "match f t1 ... tn ... with" will reduce in a finite amount of time to
+ a match applied to a constructor, whose reduction can expose another application
+ of f, but not another "match f t1' .. tn' ... width". Therefore, since no
+ new matches around f can be created by reduction, the number of
+ destructors that surrounds the application of f decreases at every step,
+ eventually leading to termination.
+
+ Even if a coinductively defined f does not reduce in every context to its
+ definiendum, it is possible to prove that the definiens is equal to its
+ definiendum. The trick is to prove first an eta-expansion lemma for the
+ inductive type that states that an inhabitant of the inductive type is
+ equal to the one obtained destructing and rebuilding it via a match. The proof
+ is simply by cases over the inhabitant. Let's see an example. *)
