Theorem prover

A theorem prover is a type of software that checks and verifies mathematical statements or logical arguments. It uses a set of rules and axioms to determine whether a particular statement is true or can be derived from established knowledge. Essentially, it functions like a sophisticated calculator for logic, helping mathematicians and computer scientists confirm the validity of proofs or find new ones. By automating part of the reasoning process, theorem provers aid in solving complex problems in mathematics, computer science, and artificial intelligence, ensuring that conclusions drawn are logically sound.
