Maximus Gorog d86d500b4f Prove preservation theorem for TOC big-step semantics.
OctiveLean/Core/Preservation.lean — the TOC analogue of TGC's
preservation. Statement:

  HasType Γ e T  ∧  HasTypeEnv env Γ  ∧  BigStep env e v env'
    ⟹  HasTypeV v T  ∧  HasTypeEnv env' Γ

No heap-typing extension (Octave has no heap). Γ is unchanged across
big-steps (assign requires x already typed).

Three structural changes were required to make preservation provable
under env-mutation, all small:

  * letIn semantics shifted to scope-restoring: BigStep.letInR now
    returns env1 (the env after evaluating the bound expression)
    rather than env2 (after the body). This drops body's mutations
    at scope-end, matching the lambda-calculus tradition. Determinism
    and Eval updated to match.

  * HasTypeV.vClos uses a two-part premise (he_dom + he_typed)
    instead of nested ∃ — the kernel rejects nested inductive
    parameters with locally-bound vars. The two parts are equivalent
    to HasTypeEnv via the new HasTypeV.vClos_to_env inversion lemma.

  * Inversion via HasTypeV.vClos_to_env exposes the closure's typing
    context as an existential — preservation's appR case uses this
    to construct the body's HasTypeEnv via extend_letIn.

The cross-language symmetry that emerged:

  TGC preservation  : threads heap-typings, weakens via extension.
  TOC preservation  : threads env directly, no extension needed.

In both, the rule cases collapse into the same three structural
shapes — terminal, IH-chain, contradiction-collapse. The case bodies
differ in HOW state is propagated (heap-typing for TGC, env for TOC)
but the SHAPE of each case is identical. That's the cross-language
abstraction speaking.

Zero sorries / axioms / admits across both projects.

octive-lean

A Lean 4 reimplementation of GNU Octave — the MATLAB-compatible numerical language — aiming to be more versatile than upstream.

Build

lake build

Requires the Lean toolchain pinned in lean-toolchain. elan will pick it up automatically.

Run

# REPL
lake exe octive-lean

# Run an .m script
lake exe octive-lean path/to/script.m

# Verify the corpus against expected outputs
lake build corpus-check
lake exe corpus-check

Layout

Path What's there
OctiveLean/ Library: Lexer, Parser, AST, Eval, Builtins, REPL, BigStep, PlotSVG, …
Main.lean Entry point — REPL or file runner
CorpusCheck.lean Test driver for corpus/
corpus/ .m test cases paired with .expected outputs
NumericalTutorial.lean, RosettaStone.lean Lean-side tutorials and Octave⇄Lean translations
PlotDemo.lean, widget/ Plotting via ProofWidgets + SVG
octave-upstream/ Shallow clone of GNU Octave (gitignored, used as reference)

Status

Working interpreter: matrices, arithmetic, control flow, functions (incl. recursion, closures, anonymous @(x)), cell arrays, structs, printf-family, REPL, file execution. See corpus/ for what's covered.

Tests

lake build && lake exe corpus-check

Pass --update to regenerate .expected files after intentional behavior changes.
