Major Section: EVENTS
Examples: (set-measure-function nqthm::count)Note: This is an event! It does not print the usual event summary but nevertheless changes the ACL2 logical world and is so recorded.
General Form: (set-measure-function name)where
name is a function symbol of one argument. This macro is
equivalent to (table acl2-defaults-table :measure-function 'name),
which is also an event (see table), but no output results from
a set-measure-function event.
This event sets the default measure function to name. Subsequently,
if a recursively defined function is submitted to defun with no
explicitly given :measure argument, defun ``guesses'' the measure
(name var), where name is the then current default measure function
and var is the first formal found to be tested along every branch
and changed in every recursive call.
