 Note: when proving our verification condition, instead of proving that semantics of relation implies error=false,​ it's same as proving that the formula for set sp(U,r) implies error=false,​ where U is the universal relation, or, in terms of formulas, computing the strongest postcondition of formula '​true'​. Note: when proving our verification condition, instead of proving that semantics of relation implies error=false,​ it's same as proving that the formula for set sp(U,r) implies error=false,​ where U is the universal relation, or, in terms of formulas, computing the strongest postcondition of formula '​true'​.
