Viera Glevitzká:
The Snake Lemma (An example of a formalization of mathematics in LEAN)

Abstract: 
We explain the basics of formalization of mathematics in the programming language LEAN 4. We illustrate it through the statement and proof of the so-called Snake lemma from algebra which was done in our bachelor thesis. The mathematical part only assumes basic knowledge of algebra from any first-year linear algebra course, and no knowledge of programming is assumed.
