The syntax `arr[i]` gets the `i`'th element of the collection `arr`.
If there are proof side conditions to the application, they will be automatically
inferred by the `get_elem_tactic` tactic.
The actual behavior of this class is type-dependent,
but here are some important implementations:
* `arr[i] : α` where `arr : Array α` and `i : Nat` or `i : USize`:
does array indexing with no bounds check and a proof side goal `i < arr.size`.
* `l[i] : α` where `l : List α` and `i : Nat`: index into a list,
with proof side goal `i < l.length`.
* `stx[i] : Syntax` where `stx : Syntax` and `i : Nat`: get a syntax argument,
no side goal (returns `.missing` out of range)
There are other variations on this syntax:
* `arr[i]`: proves the proof side goal by `get_elem_tactic`
* `arr[i]!`: panics if the side goal is false
* `arr[i]?`: returns `none` if the side goal is false
* `arr[i]'h`: uses `h` to prove the side goal

The `sorry` tactic closes the goal using `sorryAx`. This is intended for stubbing out incomplete
parts of a proof while still having a syntactically correct proof skeleton. Lean will give
a warning whenever a proof uses `sorry`, so you aren't likely to miss it, but
you can double check if a theorem depends on `sorry` by using
`#print axioms my_thm` and looking for `sorryAx` in the axiom list.

The `injection` tactic is based on the fact that constructors of inductive data types are injections.
That means that if `c` is a constructor of an inductive datatype, and if `(c t₁)` and `(c t₂)` are two terms that are equal then `t₁` and `t₂` are equal too.
If `q` is a proof of a statement of conclusion `t₁ = t₂`, then injection applies injectivity to derive the equality of all arguments of `t₁` and `t₂`
placed in the same positions. For example, from `(a::b) = (c::d)` we derive `a=c` and `b=d`. To use this tactic `t₁` and `t₂`
should be constructor applications of the same constructor.
Given `h : a::b = c::d`, the tactic `injection h` adds two new hypothesis with types `a = c` and `b = d` to the main goal.

The `simp` tactic uses lemmas and hypotheses to simplify the main goal target or non-dependent hypotheses. It has many variants.
The `simp` tactic uses lemmas and hypotheses to simplify the main goal target or
non-dependent hypotheses. It has many variants:
- `simp` simplifies the main goal target using lemmas tagged with the attribute `[simp]`.
- `simp [h₁, h₂, ..., hₙ]` simplifies the main goal target using the lemmas tagged with the attribute `[simp]` and the given `hᵢ`'s, where the `hᵢ`'s are expressions. If an `hᵢ` is a defined constant `f`, then the equational lemmas associated with `f` are used. This provides a convenient way to unfold `f`.
- `simp [*]` simplifies the main goal target using the lemmas tagged with the attribute `[simp]` and all hypotheses.
- `simp only [h₁, h₂, ..., hₙ]` is like `simp [h₁, h₂, ..., hₙ]` but does not use `[simp]` lemmas
- `simp [-id₁, ..., -idₙ]` simplifies the main goal target using the lemmas tagged with the attribute `[simp]`, but removes the ones named `idᵢ`.
- `simp at h₁ h₂ ... hₙ` simplifies the hypotheses `h₁ : T₁` ... `hₙ : Tₙ`. If the target or another hypothesis depends on `hᵢ`, a new simplified hypothesis `hᵢ` is introduced, but the old one remains in the local context.
- `simp [h₁, h₂, ..., hₙ]` simplifies the main goal target using the lemmas tagged
with the attribute `[simp]` and the given `hᵢ`'s, where the `hᵢ`'s are expressions.
If an `hᵢ` is a defined constant `f`, then the equational lemmas associated with

- `simp only [h₁, h₂, ..., hₙ]` is like `simp [h₁, h₂, ..., hₙ]` but does not use `[simp]` lemmas.
- `simp [-id₁, ..., -idₙ]` simplifies the main goal target using the lemmas tagged

- `simp at h₁ h₂ ... hₙ` simplifies the hypotheses `h₁ : T₁` ... `hₙ : Tₙ`. If
the target or another hypothesis depends on `hᵢ`, a new simplified hypothesis
`hᵢ` is introduced, but the old one remains in the local context.
- `simp at *` simplifies all the hypotheses and the target.

Assuming `x` is a variable in the local context with an inductive type, `induction x` applies induction on `x` to the main goal,
producing one goal for each constructor of the inductive type, in which the target is replaced by a general instance of that constructor

Theorems tagged with the `simp` attribute are by the simplifier

We call theorems tagged with the `simp` attribute "simp theorems" or "simp lemmas".
Lean maintains a database/index containing all active simp theorems.
Here is an example of a simp theorem.
```lean
@[simp] theorem ne_eq (a b : α) : (a ≠ b) = Not (a = b) := rfl
```
This simp theorem instructs the simplifier to replace instances of the term `a ≠ b` (e.g. `x + 0 ≠ y`) with `Not (a = b)`
(e.g., `Not (x + 0 = y)`).
The simplifier applies simp theorems in one direction only: if `A = B` is a simp theorem, then `simp`
replaces `A`s with `B`s, but it doesn't replace `B`s with `A`s. Hence a simp theorem should have the

The simplifier applies simp theorems in one direction only:
if `A = B` is a simp theorem, then `simp` replaces `A`s with `B`s,
but it doesn't replace `B`s with `A`s. Hence a simp theorem should have the
property that its right-hand side is "simpler" than its left-hand side.
In particular, `=` and `↔` should not be viewed as symmetric operators in this situation.
The following would be a terrible simp theorem (if it were even allowed):
```lean
@[simp] lemma mul_right_inv_bad (a : G) : 1 = a * a⁻¹ := ...
```
Replacing 1 with a * a⁻¹ is not a sensible default direction to travel. Even worse would be a theorem
that causes expressions to grow without bound, causing simp to loop forever.
