Abstract

This chapter describes how to use HERBY to prove theorems. The input to HERBY is a text file formatted in either its own HERBY/THEO format or in the format of the TPTP Problem Library. This is described in Section 8.1. HERBY saves the results in an output file, as described in Section 8.2. Options that the user can control are described in Section 8.3. User interaction during the search is described in Section 8.4. Examples of user options are presented in Section 8.5. Examples of HERBY’s output are given in Sections 8.6 and 8.7. The construction of a closed semantic tree is illustrated in Section 8.6. After finding a closed semantic tree, HERBY can construct a resolution-refutation proof using Algorithm 6.1, as illustrated in Section 8.7.
