Disclaimer: trying to obtain efficient certified programs by extracting nat into int is definitively *not* a good idea:
  • This is just a syntactic adaptation, many things can go wrong,
such as name captures (e.g. if you have a constant named "int" in your development, or a module named "Pervasives"). See bug 2878. - Since [int] is bounded while [nat] is (theoretically) infinite, you have to make sure by yourself that your program will not manipulate numbers greater than [max_int]. Otherwise you should consider the translation of [nat] into [big_int]. - Moreover, the mere translation of [nat] into [int] does not change the complexity of functions. For instance, [mult] stays quadratic. To mitigate this, we propose here a few efficient (but uncertified) realizers for some common functions over [nat]. This file is hence provided mainly for testing / prototyping purpose. For serious use of numbers in extracted programs, you are advised to use either coq advanced representations (positive, Z, N, BigN, BigZ) or modular/axiomatic representation.
Mapping of nat into int. The last string corresponds to a nat_case, see documentation of Extract Inductive.
