lang/ats2 - The NetBSD Packages Collection

ATS is a statically typed programming language that unifies
implementation with formal specification. It is equipped with
a highly expressive type system rooted in the framework Applied
Type System, which gives the language its name. In particular,
both dependent types and linear types are available in ATS.

In addition, ATS contains a subsystem ATS/LF that supports a form
of (interactive) theorem-proving, where proofs are constructed as
total functions. With this subsystem, ATS is able to advocate a
programmer-centric approach to program verification that combines
programming with theorem-proving in a syntactically intertwined
manner. Furthermore, ATS/LF can also serve as a logical framework
(LF) for encoding various formal systems (such as logic systems
and type systems) together with proofs of their (meta-)properties.
