In this episode we interview Lawrence Paulson, one of the creating fathers of Isabelle.
We talk about the development process, how it drew inspirations and ideas from LCF and Boyer Moore. What tools were used, it’s strenghts and weaknesses, and all about the historical context at the time! We also briefly talk about his formalization of the Gödel’s Incompletenes theorems in Isabelle
