   Note: we are also proving termination

  (* Example: Slow Subtraction *)

  let slow_subtraction (x: ref int) (z: ref int)
    requires { !x >= 0 }
    ensures { !z = old !z - old !x }
  = while !x <> 0 do
      invariant { 0 <= !x /\ !z - !x = old (!z - !x) } variant { !x }
      z := !z - 1;
      x := !x - 1

  (* Example: Reduce to Zero *)

  let reduce_to_zero (x: ref int)
    requires { !x >= 0 } ensures { !x = 0 }
  = while !x <> 0 do invariant { !x >= 0 } variant { !x } x := !x - 1 done

  (* Exercise: Slow Addition *)

  let slow_addition (x: ref int) (z: ref int)
    requires { !x >= 0 } ensures { !z = old !z + old !x }
  = while !x <> 0 do

      z := !z + 1;

  (* Example: Parity *)

      x := !x - 1

  (* Example: Finding Square Roots *)

  let sqrt (x: ref int) (z: ref int)

      invariant { 0 <= !z /\ !z * !z <= !x } variant { !x - !z * !z }
      z := !z + 1
    done

  (* Exercise: Factorial *)

  function fact int : int
  axiom fact_0 : fact 0 = 1
  axiom fact_n : forall n:int. 0 < n -> fact n = n * fact (n-1)

  let factorial (x: ref int) (y: ref int) (z: ref int)

      y := !y * !z;
