abbrev Nat.recAux {motive : Nat → Sort u} (zero : motive 0) (succ : (n : Nat) → motive n → motive (n + 1)) (t : Nat) : motive t

A recursor for Nat that uses the notations 0 for Nat.zero and n + 1 for Nat.succ.

It is otherwise identical to the default recursor Nat.rec. It is used by the induction tactic by default for Nat.

abbrev Nat.casesAuxOn {motive : Nat → Sort u} (t : Nat) (zero : motive 0) (succ : (n : Nat) → motive (n + 1)) : motive t

A case analysis principle for Nat that uses the notations 0 for Nat.zero and n + 1 for Nat.succ.

It is otherwise identical to the default recursor Nat.casesOn. It is used as the default Nat case analysis principle for Nat by the cases tactic.

def Nat.repeat {α : Type u} (f : α → α) (n : Nat) (a : α) : α

Applies a function to a starting value the specified number of times.

In other words, f is iterated n times on a.

Examples:

• Nat.repeat f 3 a = f <| f <| f <| a
• Nat.repeat (· ++ "!") 4 "Hello" = "Hello!!!!"

@[inline]

def Nat.repeatTR {α : Type u} (f : α → α) (n : Nat) (a : α) : α

Applies a function to a starting value the specified number of times.

In other words, f is iterated n times on a.

This is a tail-recursive version of Nat.repeat that's used at runtime.

Examples:

• Nat.repeatTR f 3 a = f <| f <| f <| a
• Nat.repeatTR (· ++ "!") 4 "Hello" = "Hello!!!!"

def Nat.blt (a b : Nat) : Bool

The Boolean less-than comparison on natural numbers.

This function is overridden in both the kernel and the compiler to efficiently evaluate using the arbitrary-precision arithmetic library. The definition provided here is the logical model.

Examples:

• Nat.blt 2 5 = true
• Nat.blt 5 2 = false
• Nat.blt 5 5 = false
