Prerequisites
CS 212 and CS 321Description
This course will explore the state of the art in how to implement and prove facts about software. We will focus on small, functional programs and expressing properties of them via an (extremely) sophisticated dependent type system.
By the end of this course, expect to have a better understanding of how to think about properties of programs, how to write code that demonstrates that those properties are true, and some experience programming in Agda.
