NEGATE_CONV : (conv -> conv)
STRUCTURE
Arith
SYNOPSIS
Function for negating the operation of a conversion that proves a formula to be either true or false.
DESCRIPTION
This function negates the operation of a conversion that proves a formula to be either true or false. For example, if conv proves "t" to be equal to "T" then NEGATE_CONV conv will prove "~t" to be "F".
FAILURE
Fails if the application of the conversion to the negation of the formula does not yield either "T" or "F".
EXAMPLE
#ARITH_CONV "!n. 0 <= n";;
|- (!n. 0 <= n) = T

#NEGATE_CONV ARITH_CONV "~(!n. 0 <= n)";;
|- ~(!n. 0 <= n) = F

#NEGATE_CONV ARITH_CONV "?n. ~(0 <= n)";;
|- (?n. ~0 <= n) = F
