# Memoization

Successive outputs of a given function f are stored in a stream in order to avoid duplicated computations.
Section MemoFunction.
Variable A: Type.
Variable f: nat -> A.
CoFixpoint memo_make (n:nat) : Stream A := Cons (f n) (memo_make (S n)).
Definition memo_list := memo_make 0.
Fixpoint memo_get (n:nat) (l:Stream A) : A :=
match n with
| O => hd l
| S n1 => memo_get n1 (tl l)
end.
Theorem memo_get_correct: forall n, memo_get n memo_list = f n.
Building with possible sharing using a iterator g : We now suppose in addition that f n is in fact the n-th iterate of a function g.
Variable g: A -> A.
Hypothesis Hg_correct: forall n, f (S n) = g (f n).
CoFixpoint imemo_make (fn:A) : Stream A :=
let fn1 := g fn in
Cons fn1 (imemo_make fn1).
Definition imemo_list := let f0 := f 0 in
Cons f0 (imemo_make f0).
Theorem imemo_get_correct: forall n, memo_get n imemo_list = f n.
End MemoFunction.
For a dependent function, the previous solution is reused thanks to a temporary hiding of the dependency in a "container" memo_val.

Inductive memo_val {A : nat -> Type} : Type :=
memo_mval: forall n, A n -> memo_val.
Arguments memo_val : clear implicits.
Section DependentMemoFunction.
Variable A: nat -> Type.
Variable f: forall n, A n.
Notation memo_val := (memo_val A).
Fixpoint is_eq (n m : nat) : {n = m} + {True} :=
match n, m return {n = m} + {True} with
| 0, 0 =>left True (eq_refl 0)
| 0, S m1 => right (0 = S m1) I
| S n1, 0 => right (S n1 = 0) I
| S n1, S m1 =>
match is_eq n1 m1 with
| left H => left True (f_equal S H)
| right _ => right (S n1 = S m1) I
end
end.
Definition memo_get_val n (v: memo_val): A n :=
match v with
| memo_mval m x =>
match is_eq n m with

match H in (eq _ y) return (A y -> A n) with
| eq_refl => fun v1 : A n => v1
end

end x
end.
Let mf n := memo_mval n (f n).
Definition dmemo_list := memo_list _ mf.
Definition dmemo_get n l := memo_get_val n (memo_get _ n l).
Theorem dmemo_get_correct: forall n, dmemo_get n dmemo_list = f n.
Finally, a version with both dependency and iterator
Variable g: forall n, A n -> A (S n).
Hypothesis Hg_correct: forall n, f (S n) = g n (f n).
Let mg v := match v with
memo_mval n1 v1 => memo_mval (S n1) (g n1 v1) end.
Definition dimemo_list := imemo_list _ mf mg.
Theorem dimemo_get_correct: forall n, dmemo_get n dimemo_list = f n.
End DependentMemoFunction.
