ACL2 Guide to Logic and Programming Language: introduction.

ACL2 is an interactive theorem prover. It combines a Lisp-based programming language for developing formal models of systems with a reasoning engine that can prove properties about these models. It has been used to formally verify many interesting systems in academia and industry.

The ACL2 Community Books are the canonical set of open-source libraries ("books") for ACL2. They include lemma libraries for reasoning in many domains, macro libraries for more quickly writing and documenting code, interfacing tools for connecting ACL2 to other systems, productivity tools for better proof automation and debugging, and specialty libraries for areas like hardware-verification.

This manual was generated on October 10, 2024 23:06:13. It covers both ACL2 and the Community Books. It is derived by combining

• the documentation for the ACL2 system itself—mostly written by Matt Kaufmann and J Moore
• the documentation for many Community Books—contributed by numerous members of the ACL2 community

Besides just importing the documentation, we also rearrange the topic hierarchy to try to provide a coherent organization.

This manual is very much a work in progress. If you would like to contribute to its development, please join the acl2 project on GitHub!
