Algorithm and abstraction in formal mathematics
I analyse differences in style between traditional prose mathematics writing and computer-formalised mathematics writing, presenting five case studies. I note two aspects where good style seems to differ between the two: in their incorporation of computation and of abstraction. I argue that this ref...

I argue that this reflects a different mathematical aesthetic for formalised mathematics. |
