attempt 1Wrong tactic

Proof

rfl

What Lean printed (this is all the model sees on repair)

4:2: error: Tactic `rfl` failed: The left-hand side
  a
is not definitionally equal to the right-hand side
  4

a b : ℕ
h : a * b = 12
ha : a > b
hb : b > 2
⊢ a = 4

attempt 2Other

Proof

decide

What Lean printed (this is all the model sees on repair)

4:2: error: Expected type must not contain free variables
  a = 4

Hint: Use the `+revert` option to automatically clean up and revert free variables

attempt 5Wrong tactic

Proof

ring

What Lean printed (this is all the model sees on repair)

4:2: info: Try this:
  [apply] ring_nf
  
  The `ring` tactic failed to close the goal. Use `ring_nf` to obtain a normal form.
    
  Note that `ring` works primarily in *commutative* rings. If you have a noncommutative ring, abelian group or module, consider using `noncomm_ring`, `abel` or `module` instead.
