%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
%%  Dynamic semantics  %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

% The definitions in this file do *not* strictly correspond to any specific
% code in GHC. They are here to provide a reasonable operational semantic
% interpretation to the typing rules presented in the other ott files. Thus,
% your mileage may vary. In particular, there has been *no* attempt to
% write any formal proofs over these semantics.
%
% With that disclaimer disclaimed, these rules are a reasonable jumping-off
% point for an analysis of FC's operational semantics. If you don't want to
% worry about mutual recursion (and who does?), you can even drop the
% environment S.
%
% Join points are ignored here because operationally they work exactly the same
% as regular bindings. Simply read "join" as "let" and "jump" as application to
% see how a (well-typed!) program should run.
