The paradigm of proving partial correctness and termination separately in order to prove total correctness is widely used for proving properties of programs involving only demonic or angelic nondeterminism. A similar approach can be taken when proving properties of programs involving both demonic and probabilistic nondeterminism. This short talk will focus on work in progress proving a connection between partial and total correctness for an implementation of the probabilistic-Guarded Command Language (pGCL) in HOL4 .
