### List categories

Since categories of lists of elements of another category are a common idiom, the following syntactic sugar is available:
|
||||
|
||||
cat [C] {n}
|
||||
|
||||
abbreviates a set of three judgements:
|
||||
|
||||
cat ListC ;
|
||||
fun BaseC : C -> ... -> C -> ListC ; --n C’s
|
||||
fun ConsC : C -> ListC -> ListC
|
||||
|
||||
The functions `BaseC` and `ConsC` are automatically generated in the abstract syntax, but their linearizations, as well as the linearization type of `ListC`, must be defined manually. The type expression `[C]` is in all contexts interchangeable with `ListC`.
