But we don’t know whether a is equal to '?.

En ) = body where x1 is e1 , . , xn is en . 46 Chapter 4 Yes. Now that we know what “total” means, we can use the Law of Defun for any total function, including all non-recursive functions and many recursive functions. Good question. Our axioms and laws tell us which expressions have equal values. If an expression does not have a value, our axioms and laws do not apply. Functions that are not total are called partial functions. Here is one. 35 36 37 But why does it matter if a function is total?
In frame 28, the orange expression is in a context. In frame 43 of the next chapter, the orange expression is in a focus. A premise is an if question such that a focus can be found in either the if answer or the if else. In frame 28, why is (equal a 't) a premise? Let’s walk through another example using premises and the final Law of Dethm. Here is a new dethm. 30 31 32 In frame 28, (equal a 't) is a premise because the focus is in the if answer. That’s a good idea. Is that really a theorem?
