     ↳Dependency Pair Analysis

R contains the following Dependency Pairs:

MINUS(s(x), s(y)) -> MINUS(x, y)
QUOT(s(x), s(y)) -> QUOT(minus(x, y), s(y))
QUOT(s(x), s(y)) -> MINUS(x, y)

Dependency Pair:

Rules:

minus(x, 0) -> x
minus(s(x), s(y)) -> minus(x, y)
quot(0, s(y)) -> 0
quot(s(x), s(y)) -> s(quot(minus(x, y), s(y)))
app(nil, y) -> y
app(add(n, x), y) -> add(n, app(x, y))
reverse(nil) -> nil
reverse(add(n, x)) -> app(reverse(x), add(n, nil))
shuffle(nil) -> nil
shuffle(add(n, x)) -> add(n, shuffle(reverse(x)))
concat(leaf, y) -> y
concat(cons(u, v), y) -> cons(u, concat(v, y))
less_leaves(x, leaf) -> false
less_leaves(leaf, cons(w, z)) -> true
less_leaves(cons(u, v), cons(w, z)) -> less_leaves(concat(u, v), concat(w, z))
