Some basic notions and procedures. 5. Substitution. 6. Reductions. 7. CAT and DOM. 8. Definitional equality. 9. Correctness of expressions. 10. Correctness of lines. 11. A paragraph system. 12. Final remarks.\ For the theoretical background we refer to the papers of Prof. de Bruijn, D. van Daalen and R. Nederpelt: [de Bruijn 70a (AS)], [de Bruijn 73b], [van Daalen 73 (A.3)] and [Nederpelt 73 (CS)].
