    Primitive values are integers,
    and values are arrays modeled as functions from integers to primitive values.
    
    Note that values and primitive values are usually part of the semantics, however, 
    as they occur as literals in the abstract syntax, we already define them here.

    and unary and binary operations. The operations are modeled by reflecting 
    arbitrary functions into the abstract syntax.›

  subsection ‹Boolean Expressions›
  text ‹Boolean expressions consist of constants, the not operation, binary connectives, 
    and comparison operations. Binary connectives and comparison operations are modeled by
    reflecting arbitrary functions into the abstract syntax. The not operation is the only 
    meaningful unary Boolean operation, so we chose to model it explicitly instead of 
    reflecting and unary Boolean function.›

  subsection ‹Commands›
  text ‹
    The commands can roughly be put into five categories:
    [Skip] The no-op command
    [Assignment commands] Commands to assign the value of an arithmetic expression, copy or clear arrays,
      and a command to simultaneously assign all local variables, which is only used internally 
      to simplify the definition of a small-step semantics.
    [Block commands] The standard sequential composition, if-then-else, and while commands,
      and a scope command which executes a command with a fresh set of local variables.
    [Procedure commands] Procedure call, and a procedure scope command, which executes
      a command in a specified procedure environment. Similar to the scope command, 
      which introduces new local variables, and thus limits the effect of variable manipulations
      to the content of the command, the procedure scope command introduces new procedures,
      and limits the validity of their names to the content of the command. This greatly 
      simplifies modular definition of programs, as procedure names can be used locally.
