(** * Partial maps *)

(** Finally, we define _partial maps_ on top of total maps.  A partial
    map with elements of type [A] is simply a total map with elements
    of type [option A] and default element [None]. *)

Definition partial_map (A:Type) := total_map (option A).Definition empty {A:Type} : partial_map A :=
  t_empty None.Definition update {A:Type} (m : partial_map A)
                  (x : id) (v : A) :=
  t_update m x (Some v).

Theorem update_neq : forall (X:Type) v x1 x2 (m : partial_map X), x2 <> x1 -> (update m x2 v) x1 = m x1.
