(** We now show that the code generated by "smart constructor" functions such as [SelectOp.notint] behaves as expected.  Continuing the [notint] example, we show that if the expression [e] evaluates to some value [v], then [SelectOp.notint e] evaluates to a value [v'] which is either [Val.notint v] or more defined than [Val.notint v].  All proofs follow a common pattern: - Reasoning by case over the result of the classification functions (such as [add_match] for integer addition), gathering additional information on the shape of the argument expressions in the non-default cases. - Inversion of the evaluations of the arguments, exploiting the additional information thus gathered. - Equational reasoning over the arithmetic operations performed, using the lemmas from the [Int], [Float] and [Value] modules. - Construction of an evaluation derivation for the expression returned by the smart constructor. *)
