Pre-Instructions for Tutorials

The two tutorial sessions take place in the Maari Building (building #17 at Otaniemi campus) computer classrooms A and C, and B (in reserve).

As our SAT/SMT solver in tutorials, we will use Z3 developed at Microsoft through its python interface.

Installing and using Python

 
You should have the Python programming language version 2.7.X (not 3.X.X) installed in your machine. If not, please follow these instructions and be sure to download the correct version (currently 2.7.5, not any 3.X.X). For writing python code you can use any text editor, and then use shell commands to run the code. If you prefer to use your favorite IDE with python support instead, you are free to do so.

Installing and using Z3

 
The easiest way to start using Z3 is to install the precompiled nightly build version by following the instructions found here (see the section on supported platforms). If this does not work, e.g., due to versions of libraries, it is also quite straightforward to compile Z3 from the respective source package.

What remains is to ensure that the Python interpreter can find Z3 by setting path variables appropriately:
