Default-hints-table

A table used to provide hints for proofs

Please see set-default-hints, see add-default-hints, and see remove-default-hints for how to use this table. For completeness, we mention here that under the hood, these events all update the default-hints-table by updating its key, t, for example as follows.

(table default-hints-table t
       '((computed-hint-1 clause)
         (computed-hint-2 clause
                          stable-under-simplificationp)))

The use of default hints is explained elsewhere; see set-default-hints.

Advanced users only: see override-hints for an advanced variant of default hints.
