Synopsis
Excerpt from A Survey of Program Proof Technology
To prove programs correct, one can begin by giving formal mathematical definition to the notions 'programfi and Essentially, these mathematical definitions merely formalise the basic facts concerning programs and their meaning that one would present in a first course on programming. A 'programf can be defined formally as a sequence of 'statements.
