Hi,

how can i make "f ∪ g"?

definition f :: "nat ⇀ nat" where
"f = [1 ↦ 0, 2 ↦ 5]"
definition g :: "nat ⇀ nat" where
"g = [3 ↦ 7, 4 ↦ 9]"
definition f_union_g :: "nat ⇀ nat" where
"f_union_g = [1 ↦ 0, 2 ↦ 5, 3 ↦ 7, 4 ↦ 9]"

So how should i define f_union_g?

And generally in what class.thy can i find such operators on partial functions?

Thank you!

Hi Roger,

For this you want "f ++ g". Such things are defined in Map.thy -- see here:

It might be useful to point out that find_consts can be useful for times like this. It's like a very simplified version of Hoogle [1].

You need to generalise what you are searching for, (not nat ⇀ nat but 'a ⇀ 'b), but it finds what you are after.

find_consts "('a ⇀ 'b) ⇒ ('a ⇀ 'b) ⇒ 'a ⇀ 'b"

gives

searched for:
"('a ⇀ 'b) ⇒ ('a ⇀ 'b) ⇒ 'a ⇀ 'b"

found 2 constant(s):

Quickcheck_Exhaustive.cps_plus ::
"(('a ⇒ term list option)
⇒ term list option)
⇒ (('a ⇒ term list option)
⇒ term list option)
⇒ ('a ⇒ term list option)
⇒ term list option"
Map.map_add ::
"('a ⇒ 'b option)
⇒ ('a ⇒ 'b option) ⇒ 'a ⇒ 'b option"

The second, Map.map_add is the one you want, and you can then command click on it to give the definition. ("Map_add" is "++".)

Note that map_add does right overloading, and is thus not an associative operator.

Andrew

Note that there is a theorem map_add_assoc that proves associativity of
map_add. Perhaps you meant to write that map_add is not commutative.

Best,
Tjark
