Coq

  • Coq Home Page (download system here, we are using version 8.7)
  • There are two user interfaces for Coq: CoqIDE and Proof General. You can choose which one you want to use.
    • CoqIDE: You can download and install CoqIDE along with the rest of Coq from the Coq Home Page. Documentation about CoqIDE can be found here.
    • Proof General: Proof General is an emacs mode that supports many theorem provers, including Coq. You can download Proof General from this link. Using Proof General, Company Coq is an extension allowing you to look up lemmas and the Coq Documentation.
