The Generic Approximation Lemma (2001)
Journal Article

The approximation lemma is a simplification of the well-known take lemma, and is used to prove properties of programs that produce lists of values. We show how the approximation lemma, unlike the take lemma, can naturally be generalised from lists t... Read More about The Generic Approximation Lemma.
