Examples:
(add-default-hints '((computed-hint-1 clause)
(computed-hint-2 clause
stable-under-simplificationp)))
(add-default-hints '((computed-hint-3 id clause world))
:at-end t)
Note: This is an event! It does not print the usual event summary
but nevertheless changes the ACL2 logical world and is so
recorded. It is local to the book or encapsulate form in which it
occurs (see add-default-hints! for a corresponding non-local event).
General Forms: (add-default-hints lst) (add-default-hints lst :at-end flg)where
lst is a list. Generally speaking, the elements of
lst should be suitable for use as computed-hints.This event is completely analogous to set-default-hints, the difference
being that add-default-hints appends the indicated hints to the front of
the list of default hints, so that they are tried first -- or, if flg
is supplied and evaluates to other than nil, at the end of the list, so
that they are tried last -- rather than replacing the default hints
with the indicated hints. Each new hint is thus considered after each
existing hints when both are applied to the same goal. Also
See set-default-hints, see remove-default-hints, and see default-hints.
Finally, note that the effects of set-default-hints,
add-default-hints, and remove-default-hints are local to the
book in which they appear. Thus, users who include a book with such forms
will not have their default hints affected by such forms. In order to export
the effect of setting the default hints, use set-default-hints!,
add-default-hints!, or remove-default-hints!.
For a related feature, which however is only for advanced system builders, see override-hints.
