-- But, this certificate will not really be used to proof any fancy theorems.

-- Below we provide a number of equational operations
-- that constuct proof certificates.

-- x === y returns the proof certificate that
-- result value is equal to both x and y
-- when y == x (as assumed by the operator's precondition)
