This page explains how to proove with induction method on the natural number with Rodin tools. In other words, how to proove :

P(0)

\forall i.i \in \mathbb{N}\land P(i) \Rightarrow P(i+1)

\vdash
\forall i. i \in \mathbb{N}  \Rightarrow P(i+1)


The proof key is the following theorem:
<math> \forall s.s \subseteq \mathbb{N} \land 0 \in s \land (\forall n.n \in s => n+1 \in s)\Rightarrow N \subseteq s
