Line 258:
This will be my final attempt to clarify this to you (please grab a book or article on type theory if you want to know how mathematicians and computer scientists define a type): The only implication of the fact that an actual implementation of a given logic/type theory runs on a machine with a finite amount of memory is that the set of results the compiler can give is extended from "I was able to verify the proof as correct" and "I was able to verify the proof as incorrect" with "I'm unable to verify the proof as either correct or incorrect because I ran out of memory". The third option must not occur here. The compiler should say "I was able to verify the proof as correct", assuring us that the property even + even = even hold for all countably infinite pairs of natural numbers.
::::::: I'm strongly getting the impression that you've never managed to work out a proof by induction on paper, however, making this beyond you abilities to comprehend. In that case either do the appropriate background research or simply accept this on authority. —''[[User:Ruud Koot|Ruud]]'' 12:04, 14 May 2012 (UTC)▼
