    Function structuralFingerprint

    • A hash over the structure of the subtree rooted at one expression of a snapshot. It covers each node's type, operator and child order, and each variable's referent: claim id and claim version for a claim-bound variable; the bound premise's root, recursively, for a variable bound to a premise of the same argument; argument id and premise id for one bound to a premise of another argument; argument id, expression id and aspect for an expression-bound variable. It ignores the argument's own ids and versions, and leaves out the versions of other arguments, so moving another argument to a new version does not change it.

      Two versions of an argument that keep an expression's id and give it the same fingerprint hold the same structure under it.

      Parameters

      Returns string

      When the snapshot has no such expression, or when bindings between its premises form a cycle.
