\frametitle{Overview of HOL 4}
\begin{itemize}
\item in this course we discussed the basics of HOL 4
\item you were encouraged to learn more on your own in exercises
\item there is a lot more to learn even after the end of the course
\begin{itemize}
\item many more libraries
\item proof tools
\item existing formalisations
\item ...
\end{itemize}
\item to really use HOL well, you should continue learning
\item to help getting started, a short overview is presented here
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}
\frametitle{HOL Bare Source Directories}
The following source directories are the very basis of HOL. They
are required to build \hol{hol.bare}.
\begin{itemize}
\item \hol{src/portableML} -- common stuff for PolyML and MoscowML
\item \hol{src/prekernel}
\item \hol{src/0} -- Standard Kernel
\item \hol{src/logging-kernel} -- Logging Kernel
\item \hol{src/experimental-kernel} -- Experimental Kernel
\item \hol{src/postkernel}
\item \hol{src/opentheory}
\item \hol{src/parse}
\item \hol{src/bool}
\item \hol{src/1}
\item \hol{src/proofman}
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}
\frametitle{HOL Basic Directories I}
On top of \texttt{hol.bare}, there are many basic theories and tools. These
are all required for building the main \texttt{hol} executable.
\begin{itemize}
\item \hol{src/compute} -- fast ground term rewriting
\item \hol{src/HolSat} -- SAT solver interfaces
\item \hol{src/taut} -- propositional proofs using \texttt{HolSat}

\item \hol{src/combin} -- combinators
\item \hol{src/lite} -- some simple lib with various stuff
\item \hol{src/refute} -- refutation prover, normal forms
\item \hol{src/metis} -- first order resolution prover
\item \hol{src/meson} -- first order model elimination prover
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}
\frametitle{HOL Basic Directories II}
\begin{itemize}
\item \hol{src/simp} -- simplifier
\item \hol{src/holyhammer} -- tool for finding Metis proofs
\item \hol{src/tactictoe} -- machine learning tool for finding proofs
\item \hol{src/IndDef} -- (co)inductive relation definitions
\item \hol{src/basicProof} -- library containing proof tools
\item \hol{src/relation} -- relations and order theory
\item \hol{src/one} -- unit type theory
\item \hol{src/pair} -- tuples
\item \hol{src/sum} -- sum types
\item \hol{src/tfl} -- defining terminating functions
\item \hol{src/option} -- option types
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}

\item \hol{src/pattern\_matches} -- pattern matches alternative
\item \hol{src/bossLib} -- main HOL lib loaded at start
\end{itemize}
\bigskip
\hol{bossLib} is one central library. It loads all basic theories and libraries and
provides convenient wrappers for the most common tools.
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}
\frametitle{HOL More Theories I}
Besides the basic libraries and theories that are required and loaded by \ml{hol}, there
are many more developements in HOL's source directory.

\item \hol{src/sort} -- sorting lists
\item \hol{src/string} -- strings
\item \hol{src/TeX} -- exporting LaTeX code
\item \hol{src/res\_quan} -- restricted quantifiers

\item \hol{src/finite\_map} -- finite map theory
\item \hol{src/bag} -- bags \aka multisets
\item \hol{src/n-bit} -- machine words

\item \hol{src/temporal} -- shallow embedding of temporal logic
\item \ldots
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}
\frametitle{HOL Selected Examples I}
The directory examples hosts many theories and libraries as well. There is not
always a clear distinction between an example and a development in \ml{src}. However,
in general examples are more specialised and often larger. They are not required to
follow HOL's coding style as much as developments in \ml{src}.
