Abstract
The refinement calculus and type theory are both frameworks that support the specification and verification of programs. This paper presents an embedding of the refinement calculus in the interactive theorem prover Coq, clarifying the relation between the two. As a result, refinement calculations can be performed in Coq, enabling the interactive calculation of formally verified programs from their specification.
