# A Generic construction of min and max

## First, an interface for types with max and/or min

Module Type HasMax (Import E:EqLe').
Parameter Inline max : t -> t -> t.
Parameter max_l : forall x y, y<=x -> max x y == x.
Parameter max_r : forall x y, x<=y -> max x y == y.
End HasMax.
Module Type HasMin (Import E:EqLe').
Parameter Inline min : t -> t -> t.
Parameter min_l : forall x y, x<=y -> min x y == x.
Parameter min_r : forall x y, y<=x -> min x y == y.
End HasMin.
Module Type HasMinMax (E:EqLe) := HasMax E <+ HasMin E.

## Any OrderedTypeFull can be equipped by max and min

based on the compare function.
Definition gmax {A} (cmp : A->A->comparison) x y :=
match cmp x y with Lt => y | _ => x end.
Definition gmin {A} (cmp : A->A->comparison) x y :=
match cmp x y with Gt => y | _ => x end.
Module GenericMinMax (Import O:OrderedTypeFull') <: HasMinMax O.
Definition max := gmax O.compare.
Definition min := gmin O.compare.
Lemma ge_not_lt x y : y<=x -> x<y -> False.
Lemma max_l x y : y<=x -> max x y == x.
Lemma max_r x y : x<=y -> max x y == y.
Lemma min_l x y : x<=y -> min x y == x.
Lemma min_r x y : y<=x -> min x y == y.
End GenericMinMax.

TODO: Some Remaining questions... --> Compare with a type-classes version ? --> Is max_unicity and max_unicity_ext really convenient to express that any possible definition of max will in fact be equivalent ? --> Is it possible to avoid copy-paste about min even more ?
