| 2 | + |
| 3 | +## Overview |
| 4 | +This document summarizes the implementation of two critical TODOs in `src/types/cure_guard_refinement.erl`: |
| 5 | + |
| 6 | +1. **Line 103: Union Refinement Types for OR Guards** |
| 7 | +2. **Line 434-435: SMT-based Counterexample Finding** |
| 8 | + |
| 9 | +Both features are fully implemented, tested, and integrated. |

| 12 | + |
| 13 | +## TODO #1: Union Refinement Types for OR Guards (Line 103) |
| 14 | + |
| 15 | +### Original Code |
| 16 | +```erlang |
| 17 | +#binary_op_expr{op = 'orelse', left = Left, right = Right} -> |
| 18 | + % OR: either constraint applies |
| 19 | + % For now, we don't refine types with OR guards (conservative) |
| 20 | + % TODO: Could create union refinement types |
| 21 | + LeftConstraints = extract_guard_constraints(Left), |
| 22 | + RightConstraints = extract_guard_constraints(Right), |
| 23 | + % Return both but mark as disjunctive |
| 24 | + lists:map( |
| 25 | + fun({Param, _C}) -> {Param, Guard} end, |
| 26 | + lists:usort(LeftConstraints ++ RightConstraints) |
| 27 | + ); |
| 28 | +``` |
| 29 | + |
| 30 | +### Solution Implemented |
| 31 | + |
| 32 | +**New Functions Added:** |
| 33 | + |
| 34 | +1. **`create_union_refinement_type/4`** - Creates refinement types from disjunctive constraints |
| 35 | + ```erlang |
| 36 | + -spec create_union_refinement_type(type_expr(), atom(), expr(), expr()) -> type_expr(). |
| 37 | + create_union_refinement_type(BaseType, Var, LeftConstraint, RightConstraint) |
| 38 | + ``` |
| 39 | + - Combines two constraints with `orelse` operator |
| 40 | + - Returns proper refinement type structure |
| 41 | + |
| 42 | +2. **`is_disjunctive_constraint/1`** - Detects OR constraints recursively |
| 43 | + ```erlang |
| 44 | + -spec is_disjunctive_constraint(expr()) -> boolean(). |
| 45 | + ``` |
| 46 | + - Recursively scans for `orelse` operators |
| 47 | + - Returns true if disjunction found |
| 48 | + |
| 49 | +3. **`extract_disjunctive_branches/1`** - Extracts OR branches |
| 50 | + ```erlang |
| 51 | + -spec extract_disjunctive_branches(expr()) -> {expr(), expr()} | error. |
| 52 | + ``` |
| 53 | + - Splits `orelse` expressions into components |
| 54 | + |
| 55 | +### Updated Code |
| 56 | +```erlang |
| 57 | +#binary_op_expr{op = 'orelse', left = Left, right = Right} -> |
| 58 | + % OR: either constraint applies - create union refinement types |
| 59 | + LeftConstraints = extract_guard_constraints(Left), |
| 60 | + RightConstraints = extract_guard_constraints(Right), |
| 61 | + % Collect parameters that appear in either branch |
| 62 | + AllParams = lists:usort([Param || {Param, _} <- LeftConstraints ++ RightConstraints]), |
| 63 | + % For each parameter, create a union constraint combining both branches |
| 64 | + lists:map( |
| 65 | + fun(Param) -> |
| 66 | + LeftConstraint = case lists:keyfind(Param, 1, LeftConstraints) of |
| 67 | + {_, LC} -> LC; |
| 68 | + false -> #literal_expr{value = false, location = Guard#binary_op_expr.location} |
| 69 | + end, |
| 70 | + RightConstraint = case lists:keyfind(Param, 1, RightConstraints) of |
| 71 | + {_, RC} -> RC; |
| 72 | + false -> #literal_expr{value = false, location = Guard#binary_op_expr.location} |
| 73 | + end, |
| 74 | + % Create union constraint: {Param, or_constraint(Left, Right)} |
| 75 | + UnionConstraint = #binary_op_expr{ |
| 76 | + op = 'orelse', |
| 77 | + left = LeftConstraint, |
| 78 | + right = RightConstraint, |
| 79 | + location = Guard#binary_op_expr.location |
| 80 | + }, |
| 81 | + {Param, UnionConstraint} |
| 82 | + end, |
| 83 | + AllParams |
| 84 | + ); |
| 85 | +``` |
| 86 | + |
| 87 | +### Examples |
| 88 | + |
| 89 | +**Example 1: Simple OR Guard** |
| 90 | +```cure |
| 91 | +def sign(x: Int) when x > 0 or x < 0 = |
| 92 | + % x refined to: Int when (x > 0 or x < 0) = nonzero integers |
| 93 | + x |
| 94 | +``` |
| 95 | + |
| 96 | +**Example 2: Multi-parameter Complex Guard** |
| 97 | +```cure |
| 98 | +def process(x: Int, y: Int) when (x > 0 and y < 10) or (x < 0 and y > 10) = |
| 99 | + % x refined to: Int when (x > 0 or x < 0) |
| 100 | + % y refined to: Int when (y < 10 or y > 10) |
| 101 | + x + y |
| 102 | +``` |
| 103 | + |
| 104 | +### Tests |
| 105 | +- ✓ Union refinement type creation |
| 106 | +- ✓ Disjunctive constraint recognition |
| 107 | +- ✓ Disjunctive branch extraction |
| 108 | +- ✓ Nested OR guard handling |
| 109 | + |
| 110 | +--- |
| 111 | + |
| 112 | +## TODO #2: SMT-based Counterexample Finding (Line 434-435) |
| 113 | + |
| 114 | +### Original Code |
| 115 | +```erlang |
| 116 | +%% @doc Find input cases not covered by any guard |
| 117 | +-spec find_uncovered_cases([#function_clause{}], map()) -> [term()]. |
| 118 | +find_uncovered_cases(_Clauses, _Env) -> |
| 119 | + % TODO: Use SMT solver to find counterexamples |
| 120 | + % For now, return empty list |
| 121 | + []. |
| 122 | +``` |
| 123 | + |
| 124 | +### Solution Implemented |
| 125 | + |
| 126 | +**Core Functions Added:** |
| 127 | + |
| 128 | +1. **`find_uncovered_cases/2`** - Main entry point (enhanced) |
| 129 | + - Extracts all guards from clauses |
| 130 | + - Delegates to SMT search |
| 131 | + - Returns empty list for no guards (conservative) |
| 132 | + |
| 133 | +2. **`find_counterexamples_smt/2`** - SMT integration |
| 134 | + ```erlang |
| 135 | + find_counterexamples_smt(Guards, _Env) -> [term()] |
| 136 | + ``` |
| 137 | + - Builds guard disjunction: G1 ∨ G2 ∨ ... ∨ Gn |
| 138 | + - Negates to find uncovered: ¬(G1 ∨ G2 ∨ ... ∨ Gn) |
| 139 | + - Queries `cure_guard_smt:generate_counterexample/2` |
| 140 | + |
| 141 | +3. **`build_guard_disjunction/1`** - Creates OR of all guards |
| 142 | + ```erlang |
| 143 | + -spec build_guard_disjunction([expr()]) -> expr(). |
| 144 | + ``` |
| 145 | + - Empty list → `false` |
| 146 | + - Single guard → returns unchanged |
| 147 | + - Multiple → nested `orelse` structure |
| 148 | + |
| 149 | +4. **`negate_guard_expression/1`** - Negates guard constraints |
| 150 | + ```erlang |
| 151 | + -spec negate_guard_expression(expr()) -> expr(). |
| 152 | + ``` |
| 153 | + - Implements De Morgan's laws: |
| 154 | + - ¬(A ∨ B) = (¬A ∧ ¬B) |
| 155 | + - ¬(A ∧ B) = (¬A ∨ ¬B) |
| 156 | + - Negates comparison operators |
| 157 | + - Wraps other expressions in NOT |
| 158 | + |
| 159 | +5. **`negate_comparison_op/1`** - Negates comparisons |
| 160 | + ```erlang |
| 161 | + -spec negate_comparison_op(atom()) -> atom(). |
| 162 | + ``` |
| 163 | + Maps operators to negations: |
| 164 | + - `>` ↔ `=<`, `<` ↔ `>=` |
| 165 | + - `=:=` ↔ `=/=`, `==` ↔ `/=` |
| 166 | + |
| 167 | +### Key Algorithm: De Morgan's Laws |
| 168 | + |
| 169 | +The implementation uses De Morgan's laws to convert guard disjunctions: |
| 170 | + |
| 171 | +**For guard coverage analysis:** |
| 172 | +``` |
| 173 | +Guards = [G1, G2, G3] |
| 174 | +Disjunction: G1 ∨ G2 ∨ G3 (any guard matches) |
| 175 | +Negation: ¬(G1 ∨ G2 ∨ G3) = (¬G1 ∧ ¬G2 ∧ ¬G3) |
| 176 | +Meaning: Inputs where NO guard matches (uncovered cases) |
| 177 | +SMT finds: Concrete values satisfying the negation |
| 178 | +``` |
| 179 | + |
| 180 | +### Examples |
| 181 | + |
| 182 | +**Example 1: Complete Coverage** |
| 183 | +```cure |
| 184 | +def abs(x: Int): Int when x >= 0 = x |
| 185 | +def abs(x: Int): Int when x < 0 = -x |
| 186 | +
|
| 187 | +% Guards: [x >= 0, x < 0] |
| 188 | +% Disjunction: x >= 0 ∨ x < 0 (covers all integers) |
| 189 | +% Negation: ¬(x >= 0 ∨ x < 0) = (x < 0 ∧ x >= 0) = false (unsatisfiable) |
| 190 | +% Result: No counterexamples found → coverage complete |
| 191 | +``` |
| 192 | + |
| 193 | +**Example 2: Incomplete Coverage** |
| 194 | +```cure |
| 195 | +def sign(x: Int): Int when x > 0 = 1 |
| 196 | +def sign(x: Int): Int when x < 0 = -1 |
| 197 | +
|
| 198 | +% Guards: [x > 0, x < 0] |
| 199 | +% Disjunction: x > 0 ∨ x < 0 |
| 200 | +% Negation: ¬(x > 0 ∨ x < 0) = (x ≤ 0 ∧ x ≥ 0) = (x = 0) |
| 201 | +% Result: x = 0 is uncovered → counterexample found |
| 202 | +``` |
| 203 | + |
| 204 | +### Tests |

| 206 | +- ✓ De Morgan's law (OR → AND) |
| 207 | +- ✓ De Morgan's law (AND → OR) |

| 305 | + |
| 306 | +## Performance Characteristics |
| 307 | + |
| 308 | +### Union Refinement Types |
| 309 | +- **Time**: O(n²) for n parameters (acceptable for typical guards) |
| 310 | +- **Space**: O(n) for constraint storage |
| 311 | +- **Optimization**: Uses `lists:usort/1` for deduplication |
| 312 | + |
| 313 | +### SMT Counterexamples |
| 314 | +- **Time**: Depends on SMT solver (typically ms for small guards) |
| 315 | +- **Space**: Linear in variable count |
| 316 | +- **Robustness**: Exception handling returns empty list (conservative) |
| 317 | + |
| 318 | +--- |
| 319 | + |
| 320 | +## Future Enhancements |
| 321 | + |
| 322 | +1. **Advanced Negation** |
| 323 | + - Support for complex predicates |
| 324 | + - Quantifier handling (∀, ∃) |
| 325 | + |
| 326 | +2. **Optimization** |
| 327 | + - Query caching |
| 328 | + - Incremental counterexample generation |
| 329 | + - Parallel SMT queries |
| 330 | + |
| 331 | +3. **Reporting** |
| 332 | + - Coverage metrics |
| 333 | + - Improvement suggestions |
| 334 | + - Detailed diagnostic output |
| 335 | + |
| 336 | +--- |
