- Eingangsbeispiel

- Zeile 52 steht LetFJ, muss eingeführt werden
- Operatoren motivieren. Denotable expressable types
- Java macht es anders. es gibt keine let statements
- In java kann ich die lets nur in bestimmter Weise einbauen. Die ANF Transformation macht aus TamedFJ das letFJ
- constraints nicht zu früh erwähnen
- informal erwähnen. um capture conversion zu behandeln braucht es neue constraints
- ganz vorne auflisten. Capture Conversion ist eine Neuheit
Figure 4 und 5 in ein Bild
- man könnte die syntax unterlegen und sagen die unterlegten elemente fallen weg
- in beiden Syntaxen die Methodendeklarationen sollen gleich sein. beides return benutzen
- anschließend bei der convertierung zu TamedFJ nur die Änderungen beschreiben (Änderungen nur in Expressions)

\subsection{Explanation}
Our \unify{} process uses a similar concept to the standard unification by Martelli and Montanari \cite{MM82},
consisting of terms, relations and variables.
Instead of terms we have types of the form $\exptype{C}{\ol{T}}$ and
the variables are called type placeholders.
The input consist out of subtype relations.
The goal is to find a solution (an unifier) which is a substitution for type placeholders
which satisfies all input subtype constraints.
Types are reduced until they %either reach a discrepancy like $\type{String} \doteq \type{Integer}$
reach a form like $\tv{a} \doteq \type{T}$.
Afterwards \unify{} substitutes type placehodler $\tv{a}$ with $\type{T}$.
This is done until a substitution for all type placehodlers and therefore a valid solution is reached.
The reduction and substitutions are done in the first step of the algorithm.
%The type reduction is done by the rules in figure \ref{fig:reductionRules}
\unify{} cannot reduce constraints without checking a few prerequisites.
Take the constraint $\wctype{\rwildcard{X}}{C}{\rwildcard{X}} \lessdot \exptype{C}{\wtv{a}}$ for example.
If we apply a reduction here we get $\rwildcard{X} \doteq \wtv{a}$.
The resulting $\sigma(\wtv{a}) = \rwildcard{X}$ seems like a correct substitution,
but by S-Exists $\wctype{\rwildcard{X}}{C}{\rwildcard{X}} \nless: \exptype{C}{\rwildcard{X}}$.
Reason: Free variables on the right side of a subtype relations are not allowed to show up as bound variables on the left side.
$\rwildcard{X}$ in this case.
Therefore the \rulename{Reduce} rule only reduces constraints where the left side does not declare any wildcards.
But if the right side neither contains wildcard type placeholders nor free variables the constraint can be reduced anyways.
The \rulename{Prepare} rule then converts this constraint to a capture constraint.
Afterwards the \rulename{Capture} rule removes the wildcard declarations on the left side an the constraint can be reduced.
\textit{Example} of the type reduction rules in figure \ref{fig:reductionRules} with the input
$\wctype{\rwildcard{X}}{Pair}{\wctype{\rwildcard{Y}}{List}{\rwildcard{Y}}, \rwildcard{X}} \lessdot \exptype{Pair}{\wctype{\rwildcard{Y}}{List}{\rwildcard{Y}}, \wtv{a}}$
The first step is the \rulename{Capture} rule.
%The right side of the constraint does not contain any free variables.
$\begin{array}{c}
\wctype{\rwildcard{X}}{Pair}{\wctype{\rwildcard{Y}}{List}{\rwildcard{Y}}, \rwildcard{X}} \lessdot \exptype{Pair}{\wctype{\rwildcard{Y}}{List}{\rwildcard{Y}}, \wtv{a}}\\
\hline %Capture
