Abstract
This manual introduces an inductive theorem prover called TIP system (Term Induction Prover). This prover can be used to verify universally quantified systems of conditional equations over algebraic specifications. The proofs can be done in either an interactive or an automatic way. The reader learns how to use the TIP system, especially how to do inductive proofs in an interactive way. Besides, the internal proof algorithm and the built-in heuristics are explained and some useful techniques for successful theorem proving are presented. Preface This report refers to the TIP system version 3.0. Older versions may not have all the features described in this manual or may behave in a slightly different way than described in this manual. For more information on the distribution of the TIP system, error reports, suggestions, etc. please send electronic mail to fraus@forwiss.uni-passau.de. If you would like to get and install the prover on your machine(s) then please see appendix B. Thank...
