  The "Concrete Semantics" book gives an introduction to imperative programming
languages accompanied by an Isabelle/HOL formalization. In this paper we
discuss a re-formalization of the book using the Coq proof assistant. In order
to achieve a similar brevity of the formal text we extensively use CoqHammer,
as well as Coq Ltac-level automation. We compare the formalization efficiency,
compactness, and the readability of the proof scripts originating from a Coq
re-formalization of two chapters from the book.
