# Library Coq.Init.Peano

The type nat of Peano natural numbers (built from O and S) is defined in Datatypes.v
This module defines the following operations on natural numbers :

- predecessor pred
- addition plus
- multiplication mult
- less or equal order le
- less lt
- greater or equal ge
- greater gt

It states various lemmas and theorems about natural numbers, including Peano's axioms of arithmetic (in Coq, these are provable). Case analysis on nat and induction on nat * nat are provided too
