Definition of ascii characters

Definition of ascii character as a 8 bits constructor

Inductive ascii : Set := Ascii (_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ : bool).

Declare Scope char_scope.
Delimit Scope char_scope with char.
Bind Scope char_scope with ascii.

Register ascii as core.ascii.type.
Register Ascii as core.ascii.ascii.

Definition zero := Ascii false false false false false false false false.

Definition one := Ascii true false false false false false false false.

Definition shift (c : bool) (a : ascii) :=
  match a with
    | Ascii a1 a2 a3 a4 a5 a6 a7 a8 => Ascii c a1 a2 a3 a4 a5 a6 a7
  end.

Definition of a decidable function that is effective

Definition ascii_dec : forall a b : ascii, {a = b} + {a <> b}.

Local Open Scope lazy_bool_scope.

Definition eqb (a b : ascii) : bool :=

Conversion between natural numbers modulo 256 and ascii characters

Auxiliary function that turns a positive into an ascii by looking at the last 8 bits, ie z mod 2^8

Definition ascii_of_pos : positive -> ascii :=
 let loop := fix loop n p :=
   match n with
     | O => zero
     | S n' =>
       match p with
         | xH => one
         | xI p' => shift true (loop n' p')
         | xO p' => shift false (loop n' p')
       end
   end
 in loop 8.

Conversion from N to ascii

Definition ascii_of_N (n : N) :=
  match n with
    | N0 => zero
    | Npos p => ascii_of_pos p
  end.

Same for nat

Definition ascii_of_nat (a : nat) := ascii_of_N (N.of_nat a).

  | nil => 0
  | b :: l' => (if b then 1 else 0) + 2*(N_of_digits l')

  forall a : ascii, (N_of_ascii a < 256)%N.

Theorem ascii_nat_embedding :
  forall a : ascii, ascii_of_nat (nat_of_ascii a) = a.

Theorem nat_ascii_embedding :

Lemma leb_antisym (a b : ascii) :
  leb a b = true -> leb b a = true -> a = b.

Lemma leb_total (a b : ascii) : leb a b = true \/ leb b a = true.

Infix "?=" := compare : char_scope.
Infix "<?" := ltb : char_scope.
Infix "<=?" := leb : char_scope.

Concrete syntax

Ascii characters can be represented in scope char_scope as follows:
  • "c" represents itself if c is a character of code < 128,
  • """" is an exception: it represents the ascii character 34 (double quote),
  • "nnn" represents the ascii character of decimal code nnn.
For instance, both "065" and "A" denote the character `uppercase A', and both "034" and """" denote the character `double quote'.
Notice that the ascii characters of code >= 128 do not denote stand-alone utf8 characters so that only the notation "nnn" is available for them (unless your terminal is able to represent them, which is typically not the case in coqide).

Definition ascii_of_byte (b : byte) : ascii
  := let '(b0, (b1, (b2, (b3, (b4, (b5, (b6, b7))))))) := Byte.to_bits b in
     Ascii b0 b1 b2 b3 b4 b5 b6 b7.

Definition byte_of_ascii (a : ascii) : byte
  := let (b0, b1, b2, b3, b4, b5, b6, b7) := a in
     Byte.of_bits (b0, (b1, (b2, (b3, (b4, (b5, (b6, b7))))))).
