(** This file implements the low-level monadic operations used by the
    tactic monad. The monad is divided into two layers: a non-logical
    layer which consists in operations which will not (or cannot) be
    backtracked in case of failure (input/output or persistent state)
    and a logical layer which handles backtracking, proof
    manipulation, and any other effect which needs to backtrack. *)


(** {6 Exceptions} *)


(** To help distinguish between exceptions raised by the IO monad from
    the one used natively by Coq, the former are wrapped in
    [Exception].  It is only used internally so that [catch] blocks of
    the IO monad would only catch exceptions raised by the [raise]
    function of the IO monad, and not for instance, by system
    interrupts. Also used in [Proofview] to avoid capturing exception
    from the IO monad ([Proofview] catches errors in its compatibility
    layer, and when lifting goal-level expressions). *)
exception Exception of exn
(** This exception is used to signal abortion in [timeout] functions. *)
exception Timeout
(** This exception is used by the tactics to signal failure by lack of
    successes, rather than some other exceptions (like system
    interrupts). *)
exception TacticFailure of exn


(** {6 Non-logical layer} *)

(** The non-logical monad is a simple [unit -> 'a] (i/o) monad. The
    operations are simple wrappers around corresponding usual
    operations and require little documentation. *)

(** {6 Logical layer} *)

(** The logical monad is a backtracking monad on top of which is
    layered a state monad (which is used to implement all of read/write,
    read only, and write only effects). The state monad being layered on
    top of the backtracking monad makes it so that the state is
    backtracked on failure.

    Backtracking differs from regular exception in that, writing (+)
    for exception catching and (>>=) for bind, we require the
    following extra distributivity laws:

    x+(y+z) = (x+y)+z

    zero+x = x

    x+zero = x

    (x+y)>>=k = (x>>=k)+(y>>=k) *)

(** A view type for the logical monad, which is a form of list, hence
    we can decompose it with as a list. *)

      according to the functions [src] and [dst]. To ensure a meaningful result,
      those functions must form a retraction, i.e. [dst (src e1) = e1] for all
      [e1]. This is typically the case when the type ['e1] is [unit]. *)
