[tlaplus] How can I prove AND function on 4 bit value in TLAPS



I've defined a 4 bit value as such:

bv4 == [ 0..3 -> {TRUE,FALSE} ]

and a function that does an AND operation on two 4 bit values:

AND4 == [f,g \in bv4 |-> [i \in 0..3 |-> (i=0 /\ f[0] /\ g[0]) \/ 

                                                                (i=1 /\ f[1] /\ g[1]) \/

                                                                (i=2 /\ f[2] /\ g[2]) \/

                                                                (i=3 /\ f[3] /\ g[3])     ]]


This function should behave like any an AND operation in any assembly language. For example,  AND 0b1010, 0b0010 == 0b0010

In TLA+, a 4-bit binary number is represented in a form of a function. So, AND4 takes in. two functions and outputs a function.

It's pretty straight forward to see that AND4 would behave as it should, but how can I prove it for any given 4-bit. values.

I tried starting it. Please tell me if I'm on the right track:

THEOREM AND4_CORRECT==

    \A f,g \in bv4 : \A i \in 0..3 : AND4[f,g][i] <=> f[i] /\ g[i]


PROOF

    <1>1 TAKE f,g \in bv4

    <1>2 TAKE i \in 0..3

    <1>3 ASSUME AND4[f,g][i] PROVE f[i] /\ g[i]

    <1>4 CASE i = 0

        <2>1 f[0] /\ g[0]
