How formal should a proof be in teaching mathematics?

The title of this paper poses a question, but the paper does not contain a definite answer to that question; in fact, maybe a general answer does not exist. The purposeof the paper is to stress the importance of proving, and proving in different ways in high school, even though I understand how hard it can be for most pupils (I am referring to pupils from 15 to 19). A number of examples is discussed.
