This is discussed at some length at https://us.metamath.org/mpeuni/mmnatded.html and if you want something shorter, "put everything in deduction form" would be my one sentence summary.

Greetings,

Carnap book chapter 4 (https://carnap.io/book/4) talks about Conditional Derivations. Was trying to come up with a way to do it in metamath but am stuck.

An example is:

For the argument /P/ → /Q/, /Q/ → /R/ ⊢ /P/ → /R/, we can derive:

1. Show:P->R
2.     P :AS
3.     P->Q :PR
4.     Q->R :PR
5.     Q :MP 2,3
6.     R :MP 4,5
7. :CD 6

It assumes (AS) P on step 2, introduces premises (PR), applies Modus Ponens (MP) and concludes the proof of P -> R with a conditional derivation.

All seems very similar to metamath way of doing things except (?) from the :AS part. Is this translatable directly to metamath somehow?

Best regards,
JA
