Module: data.nat.bquant
Author: Leonardo de Moura

Show that "bounded" quantifiers: (∃x, x < n ∧ P x) and (∀x, x < n → P x)
are decidable when P is decidable.

This module allow us to write if-then-else expressions such as

  if (∀ x : nat, x < n → ∃ y : nat, y < n ∧ y * y = x) then t else s

without assuming classical axioms.

More importantly, they can be reduced inside of the Lean kernel.
