In this chapter, we will study an alternative technique, %\index{proof by reflection}%_proof by reflection_ %\cite{reflection}%.  We will write, in Gallina, decision procedures with proofs of correctness, and we will appeal to these procedures in writing very short proofs.  Such a proof is checked by running the decision procedure.  The term _reflection_ applies because we will need to translate Gallina propositions into values of inductive types representing syntax, so that Gallina programs may analyze them. *)

     As we might expect, the proof that [tauto] builds contains explicit applications of natural deduction rules.  For large formulas, this can add a linear amount of proof size overhead, beyond the size of the input.

 (** * A Smarter Tautology Solver *)
 
-(** Now we are ready to revisit our earlier tautology solver example.  We want to broaden the scope of the tactic to include formulas whose truth is not syntactically apparent.  We will want to allow injection of arbitrary formulas, like we allowed arbitrary monoid expressions in the last example.  Since we are working in a richer theory, it is important to be able to use equalities between different injected formulas.  For instance, we cannot prove [P -> P] by translating the formula into a value like [Imp (][Var P) (][Var P)], because a Gallina function has no way of comparing the two [P]s for equality.
