Kettled twice. Extra chewy, extra trustworthy.
Summary
This book introduces data structures and algorithms for functional programming languages with a focus on formal verification. It covers both functional correctness and running time analysis using inductive proofs about functional programs and their running time functions. All proofs have been machine-checked by the Isabelle proof assistant, and the PDF includes links to corresponding Isabelle theories.
