     ↳Dependency Pair Analysis

R contains the following Dependency Pairs:

TERMS(N) -> SQR(N)
SQR(s(X)) -> ADD(sqr(X), dbl(X))
SQR(s(X)) -> SQR(X)
SQR(s(X)) -> DBL(X)
DBL(s(X)) -> DBL(X)
ADD(s(X), Y) -> ADD(X, Y)

Furthermore, R contains three SCCs.

On this DP problem, a Forward Instantiation SCC transformation can be performed.
As a result of transforming the rule

one new Dependency Pair is created:
