But earlier, didn't we say: We will make use of this function when we define and verify our semantics.
Let's take a look at that next.
#### Semantics in Coq
Now that we've seen finite sets and vectors, it's time to use them to
encode our semantics in Coq. Before we do anything else, we need
to provide Coq definitions for the various components of our
language, much like what we did with `tinylang`. We can start with opcodes:
{{< codelines "Coq" "aoc-2020/day8.v" 20 23 >}}
Now we can define a few other parts of our language and semantics, namely
states, instructions and programs (which I called "inputs" since, we'll, they're
our puzzle input). A state is simply the 3-tuple of the program counter, the set
of valid program counters, and the accumulator. We write it as follows:
{{< codelines "Coq" "aoc-2020/day8.v" 33 33 >}}
The star `*` is used here to represent a [product type](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Product_type)
rather than arithmetic multiplication. Our state type accepts an argument,
`n`, much like a finite natural number or a vector. In fact, this `n` is passed on
to the state's program counter and set types. Rightly, a state for a program
of length \\(n\\) will not be of the same type as a state for a program of length \\(n+1\\).
An instruction is also a tuple, but this time containing only two elements: the opcode and
the number. We write this as follows:
{{< codelines "Coq" "aoc-2020/day8.v" 36 36 >}}
Finally, we have to define the type of a program. This type will also be
indexed by `n`, the program's length. A program of length `n` is simply a
vector of instructions `inst` of length `n`. This leads to the following
definition:
{{< codelines "Coq" "aoc-2020/day8.v" 38 38 >}}
So far, so good! Finally, it's time to get started on the semantics themselves.
We begin with the inductive definition of \\((\\rightarrow_i)\\).
I think this is fairly straightforward. However, we do use
`t` instead of \\(n\\) from the rules, and we use `FS`
instead of \\(+1\\). Also, we make the formerly implicit
assumption that \\(c+n\\) is valid explicit, by
providing a proof that `valid_jump_t pc t = Some pc'`.
{{< codelines "Coq" "aoc-2020/day8.v" 103 110 >}}
Next, it will help us to combine the premises for a
"failed" and "ok" terminations into Coq data types.
This will make it easier for us to formulate a lemma later on.
Here are the definitions:
{{< codelines "Coq" "aoc-2020/day8.v" 112 117 >}}
Since all of out "termination" rules start and
end in the same state, there's no reason to
write that state twice. Thus, both `done`
and `stuck` only take the input `inp`,
and the state, which includes the accumulator
`acc`, set of allowed program counters `v`, and
the program counter at which the program came to an end.
When the program terminates successfully, this program
counter will be equal to the length of the program `n`,
so we use `nat_to_fin n`. On the other hand, if the program
terminates in as stuck state, it must be that it terminated
at a program counter that points to an instruction. Thus, this
program counter is actually a \\(\\text{Fin} \\; n\\), and not
a \\(\\text{Fin} \\ (n+1)\\), and is not in the set of allowed program counters.
We use the same "weakening" trick we saw earlier to represent
this.
Finally, we encode the three inference rules we came up with:
{{< codelines "Coq" "aoc-2020/day8.v" 119 126 >}}
Notice that we fused two of the premises in the last rule.
Instead of naming the instruction at the current program
counter and using it in another premise, we simply use
`nth inp pc`, which corresponds to \\(p[c]\\) in our
"paper" semantics.
Before we go on writing some actual proofs, we have
one more thing we have to address. Earlier, we said:
> All jumps will lead either to an instruction, or right to the end of a program. > All jumps will lead either to an instruction, or right to the end of a program.

Finally, we encode the three inference rules we came up with: > For our valid program, at any program counter `pc`
and accumulator `acc`, there must exists another program
counter `pc'` and accumulator `acc'` such that the
instruction evaluation relation \\((\rightarrow_i)\\)

we can always make a step.
{{< codelines "Coq" "aoc-2020/day8.v" 119 126 >}} Here is this claim encoded in Coq:
{{< codelines "Coq" "aoc-2020/day8.v" 168 169 >}}
We start our proof by introducing all the relevant variables into
the global context. I've mentioned this when I wrote about
day 1, but here's the gist: the `intros` keyword takes
variables from a `forall`, and makes them concrete.
In short, `intros x` is very much like saying "suppose
we have an `x`", and going on with the proof.
{{< codelines "Coq" "aoc-2020/day8.v" 170 171 >}}
Here, we said "take any program counter `pc` and any
accumulator `acc`". Now what? Well, first of all,
we want to take a look at the instruction at the current
`pc`. We know that this instruction is a combination
of an opcode and a number, so we use `destruct` to get
access to both of these parts:
{{< codelines "Coq" "aoc-2020/day8.v" 172 172 >}}
Now, Coq reports the following proof state:
```
1 subgoal
n : nat
inp : input n
Hv : valid_input inp
pc : Fin.t n
acc : t
o : opcode
t0 : t
Hop : nth inp pc = (o, t0)
========================= (1 / 1)
exists (pc' : fin (S n)) (acc' : t),
step_noswap (o, t0) (pc, acc) (pc', acc')
```
We have some opcode `o`, and some associated number
`t0`, and we must show that there exist a `pc'`
and `acc'` to which we can move on. To prove
that something exists in Coq, we must provide
an instance of that "something". If we claim
that there exists a dog that's not a good boy,
we better have this elusive creature in hand.
In other words, proofs in Coq are [constructive](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constructive_proof).
Without knowing the kind of operation we're dealing with, we can't
say for sure how the step will proceed. Thus, we proceed by
case analysis on `o`.
{{< codelines "Coq" "aoc-2020/day8.v" 173 173 >}}
There are three possible cases we have to consider,
one for each type of instruction.
* If the instruction is \\(\\texttt{add}\\), we know
that `pc' = pc + 1` and `acc' = acc + t0`. That is,
the program counter is simply incremented, and the accumulator
is modified with the number part of the instruction.
* If the instruction is \\(\\texttt{nop}\\), the program
coutner will again be incremented (`pc' = pc + 1`),
but the accumulator will stay the same, so `acc' = acc`.
* If the instruction is \\(\\texttt{jmp}\\), things are
more complicated. We must rely on the assumption
that our input is valid, which tells us that adding
`t0` to our `pc` will result in `Some f`, and not `None`.
Given this, we have `pc' = f`, and `acc' = acc`.
This is how these three cases are translated to Coq:
{{< codelines "Coq" "aoc-2020/day8.v" 174 177 >}}
For the first two cases, we simply provide the
values we expect for `pc'` and `acc'`, and
apply the corresponding inference rule that
is satisfied by these values. For the third case, we have
to invoke `Hv`, the hypothesis that our input is valid.
In particular, we care about the instruction at `pc`,
so we use `specialize` to plug `pc` into the more general
hypothesis. We then replace `nth inp pc` with its known
value, `(jmp, t0)`. This tells us the following, in Coq's words:
```
Hv : valid_inst (jmp, t0) pc
```
That is, `(jmp, t0)` is a valid instruction at `pc`. Then, using
Coq's `inversion` tactic, we ask: how is this possible? There is
only one inference rule that gives us such a conclusion, and it is named `valid_inst_jmp`
in our Coq code. Since we have a proof that our `jmp` is valid,
it must mean that this rule was used. Furthermore, sicne this
rule requires that `valid_jump_t` evaluates to `Some f'`, we know
that this must be the case here! Coq now has adds the following
two lines to our proof state:
```
f' : fin (S n)
H0 : valid_jump_t pc t0 = Some f'
```
Finally, we specify, as mentioned earlier, that `pc' = f'` and `acc' = acc`.
As before, we apply the corresponding step rule for `jmp`. When it asks
for a proof that `valid_jump_t` produces a valid program counter,
we hand it `H0` using `apply H0`. And with that, Coq is happy!
Next, we prove a claim that a valid program can always do _something_,
and that something is one of three things:
* It can terminate in the "ok" state if the program counter
reaches the programs' end.
* It can terminate with an error if it's currently at a program
counter that is not included in the valid set.
* Otherwise, it can run the current instruction and advance
to a "next" state.
Alternatively, we could say that one of the inference rules
for \\((\\Rightarrow_p)\\) must apply. This is not the case if the input
is not valid, since, as I said
before, an arbitrary input program can lead us to jump
to a negative address (or to an address _way_ past the end of the program).
Here's the claim, translated to Coq:
{{< codelines "Coq" "aoc-2020/day8.v" 181 186 >}}
Informally, we can prove this as follows:
* If the current program counter is equal to the length
of the program, we've reached the end. Thus, the program
can terminate in the "ok" state.
* Otherwise, the current program counter must be
less than the length of the program.
* If we've already encountered this program counter (that is,
if it's gone from the set of valid program counters),
then the program will terminate in the "error" state.
* Otherwise, the program counter is in the set of
valid instructions. By our earlier theorem, in a valid
program, the instruction at any program counter can be correctly
executed, taking us to the next state. Now too
our program can move to this next state.
Below is the Coq translation of the above.
{{< codelines "Coq" "aoc-2020/day8.v" 187 203 >}}
It doesn't seem like we're that far from being done now.
A program can always take a step, and each time it does,
the set of valid program counters decreases in size. Eventually,
this set will become empty, so if nothing else, our program will
eventually terminate in an "error" state. Thus, it will stop
running no matter what.
The problem is: how do we express that?
