 (** * The Definitional Equality *)
 
-(** We have seen many examples so far where proof goals follow "by computation."  That is, we apply computational reduction rules to reduce the goal to a normal form, at which point it follows trivially.  Exactly when this works and when it does not depends on the details of Coq's%\index{definitional equality}% _definitional equality_.  This is an untyped binary relation appearing in the formal metatheory of CIC.  CIC contains a typing rule allowing the conclusion $E : T$ from the premise $E : T'$ and a proof that $T$ and $T'$ are definitionally equal.

    The %\index{tactics!cbv}%[cbv] tactic will help us illustrate the rules of Coq's definitional equality.  We redefine the natural number predecessor function in a somewhat convoluted way and construct a manual proof that it returns [0] when applied to [1]. *)

-In this example, the [ex] type itself is in [Prop], so whole [ex] packages are erased.  Coq extracts every proposition as the (Coq-specific) type %\texttt{\_\_}%#<tt>__</tt>#, whose single constructor is %\texttt{\_\_}%#<tt>__</tt>#.

+In this example, the [ex] type itself is in [Prop], so whole [ex] packages are erased.  Coq extracts every proposition as the (Coq-specific) type <<__>>, whose single constructor is <<__>>.

 Extraction is very helpful as an optimization over programs that contain proofs.  In languages like Haskell, advanced features make it possible to program with proofs, as a way of convincing the type checker to accept particular definitions.  Unfortunately, when proofs are encoded as values in GADTs%~\cite{GADT}%, these proofs exist at runtime and consume resources.  In contrast, with Coq, as long as all proofs are kept within [Prop], extraction is guaranteed to erase them.
