COST Verification Competition, Challenge 2: Maximum in a tree
http://foveoos2011.cost-ic0701.org/verification-competition
Given: A non-empty binary tree, where every node carries an integer.
Implement and verify a program that computes the maximum of the values
in the tree.
Please base your program on the following data structure signature:
public class Tree {
int value;
Tree left;
Tree right;
}
You may represent empty trees as null references or as you consider
appropriate.
*/
// Remarks:
// The specification of this program uses the common dynamic-frames idiom in Dafny: the
// ghost field 'Contents' stores the abstract value of an object, the ghost field 'Repr'
// stores the set of (references to) objects that make up the representation of the object
// (which in this case is the Tree itself plus the 'Repr' sets of the left and right
// subtrees), and a function 'Valid()' that returns 'true' when an object is in a
// consistent state (that is, when an object satisfies the "class invariant").
// The design I used was to represent an empty tree as a Tree object whose left and
// right pointers point to the object iself. This is convenient, because it lets
// clients of Tree and the implementation of Tree always use non-null pointers to
// Tree objects.
// What needs to be human-trusted about this program is that the 'requires' and
// 'ensures' clauses (that is, the pre- and postconditions, respectively) of
// 'ComputeMax' are correct. And, since the specification talks about the ghost
// variable 'Contents', one also needs to trust that the 'Valid()' function
// constrains 'Contents' in a way that a human thinks matches the intuitive
// definition of what the contents of a tree is.
// To give a taste of that the 'Valid()' function does not over-constrain the
// object, I have included two instance constructors, 'Empty()' and 'Node(...)'.
// To take this a step further, one could also write a 'Main' method that
// builds somme tree and then calls 'ComputeMax', but I didn't do that here.
// About Dafny:
// As always (when it is successful), Dafny verifies that the program does not
// cause any run-time errors (like array index bounds errors), that the program
// terminates, that expressions and functions are well defined, and that all
// specifications are satisfied. The language prevents type errors by being type
// safe, prevents dangling pointers by not having an "address-of" or "deallocate"
// operation (which is accommodated at run time by a garbage collector), and
// prevents arithmetic overflow errors by using mathematical integers (which
// is accommodated at run time by using BigNum's). By proving that programs
// terminate, Dafny proves that a program's time usage is finite, which implies
// that the program's space usage is finite too. However, executing the
// program may fall short of your hopes if you don't have enough time or
// space; that is, the program may run out of space or may fail to terminate in
// your lifetime, because Dafny does not prove that the time or space needed by
// the program matches your execution environment. The only input fed to
// the Dafny verifier/compiler is the program text below; Dafny then automatically
// verifies and compiles the program (for this program in less than 2.5 seconds)
// without further human intervention.
