Term

The Term class represents an arbitrary expression of any of the supported sorts. The list of all supported kinds of terms is given by the Kind enum. The Term class provides functions for general inspection (e.g., comparison, retrieving the kind and sort, accessing sub-terms), but also functions for retrieving constant values for the supported theories (i.e., is<Type>Value() and get<Type>Value(), which returns the constant values in the best type Python offers).

The TermManager class provides factory functions to create terms, e.g., TermManager.mkTerm() for generic terms and TermManager.mk<Type>() for constants, variables and values of a given type.

The result of simultaneously replacing the term(s) stored in term_or_list_1 by the term(s) stored in term_or_list_2 in this term.

This replacement is applied during a pre-order traversal and only once to the term. It is not run until fix point. In the case that terms contains duplicates, the replacement earliest in the list takes priority. For example, calling substitute on f(x,y) with

term_or_list_1 = [ x, z ], term_or_list_2 = [ g(z), w ]

results in the term f(g(z),y).
