-- Convenient syntax for "equational reasoning" using a preorder
------------------------------------------------------------------------

-- I think that the idea behind this library is originally Ulf
-- Norell's. I have adapted it to my tastes and mixfix operators,
-- though.

-- If you need to use several instances of this module in a given
-- file, then you can use the following approach:
--
--   import Relation.Binary.PreorderReasoning as Pre
--
--   f x y z = begin
--     ...
--       ∎
--     where open Pre preorder₁
--
--   g i j = begin
--     ...
--       ∎
--     where open Pre preorder₂

open import Relation.Binary

module Relation.Binary.PreorderReasoning (p : Preorder) where

open Preorder p

infix  4 _IsRelatedTo_
infix  2 _∎
infixr 2 _∼⟨_⟩_ _≈⟨_⟩_
infix  1 begin_

-- This seemingly unnecessary type is used to make it possible to
-- infer arguments even if the underlying equality evaluates.
