Programming in Z3 by learning to think like a compiler
Image created by stories It took me about two years to write my first program in Z3. I had done some tutorials, wrote code to solve other people’s example puzzles, but I couldn’t really figure out how to cross over from very abstract “toy” use cases to applications that had actual relevance. Z3 is a Satisfiability modulo theories (SMT) solver, a cousin to the satisfiability (SAT) solvers I’ve written about before. Whereas SAT solvers require encoding everything in to a set of True/False statements, SMT solvers allow for greater expressiveness. In plain SAT you can represent addition...
