Abstract
The Curry-Howard Isomorphism is a powerful tool in automated and assisted theorem proving. We provide a development of the material required to understand the Curry Howard Isomorphism and why it is useful. As a part of this program we provide a resource to quickly learn how to prove mathematical statements using a programming language. After establishing the theory we will look at examples of how the Curry Howard isomorphism can be useful by looking into the programming language Idris.
