  1. Overview
  2. Docs

This module exposes the low level representation of terms. * * The data type term is opaque and can only be accessed by using the * look API that exposes a term view. The look view automatically * substitutes assigned unification variables by their value. The UVar * and AppUVar node hence stand for unassigned unification variables.

type constant = int

De Bruijn levels (not indexes): the distance of the binder from the root. Starts at 0 and grows for bound variables; global constants have negative values.

type builtin

De Bruijn levels (not indexes): the distance of the binder from the root. Starts at 0 and grows for bound variables; global constants have negative values.

Smart constructors

val mkLam : term -> term
val mkApp : constant -> term -> term list -> term
val mkCons : term -> term -> term
val mkNil : term
val mkDiscard : term
val mkBuiltin : builtin -> term list -> term
val mkBuiltinName : string -> term list -> term
val mkCData : CData.t -> term
val mkUVar : uvar_body -> int -> int -> term
val mkAppUVar : uvar_body -> int -> term list -> term
val look : depth:int -> term -> view

Terms must be inspected after dereferencing their head. If the resulting term is UVar then its uvar_body is such that get_assignment uvar_body = None
