I don't think the issue here is requiring the matrix coefficients to be real (I don't think that complex values make sense there at all), but allowing arbitrary real numbers. In such case you can show algorithm, for which there ex

you could have mix of assertions and proofs, obtaining something that you could call gradual verification - you wouldn't have to prove everything from axioms, you could base on assertions. the difference from asserts and unit testing i

But still there are parts where mathematics is in use, as analogue filter design. I'd love to see something focused on that parts, but I'm afraid that there might be nothing like that.

Scala version can be written as one-liner as well; losing readability, but it might be ok for fast hacking / prototyping: article.author.flatMap(_.address).flatMap(_.city).map(_.toLowerCase).foreach(println) And in for-comprehension ve
