Topic: Prolog programming language


  
 Prolog programming language - definition of Prolog programming language in Encyclopedia
Prolog is used in many artificial intelligence programs and in computational linguistics (especially natural language processing, which it was originally designed for).
It was an attempt to make a programming language that enabled the expression of logic instead of carefully specified instructions on the computer.
Programming in Prolog is very different from programming in a procedural language.

 Prolog Programming Language
Prolog is a rich collection of data structures in the language and human reasoning, and a powerful notation for encoding end-user applications.
Prolog represents a fundamentally new approach to computing and became a serious competitor to LISP.
Prolog (PROgramming LOGic) rose within the realm of Artificial Intelligence (AI).

 Introduction to Prolog
These Prolog programs are not only statements in a logic but they are also statements in a programming language.
I.e., a Prolog program can be thought of as a set of statements in first-order logic, and the meaning of the program is the set of true implications of those logical statements.
Prolog's name is short for ``Programming in Logic'' (or really for Programmation Logique?'') As its name suggests, Prolog is firmly based on logic, and Prolog programs can be understood as statements in a formal logic.

In programming this system, you may use the monkeys and banana program discussed in class as an example, but your are free to program the system any way you want as long as it is in a Prolog that is supported in the CS department labs and uses a declarative approach.
In this assignment, you are to use the Prolog programming language for an artificial intelligence problem in problem solving.
You are not to collaborate with other students as to the design of your particular program, but you may exchange information on the programming language used.

 What is Prolog? - A Word Definition From the Webopedia Computer Dictionary
Short for Programming Logic, Prolog is a high-level programming language based on formal logic.
Unlike traditional programming languages that are based on performing sequences of commands, Prolog is based on defining and then solving logical formulas.
Prolog is used widely for artificial intelligence applications, particularly expert systems.

 Computers: Programming: Languages: Prolog - Open Site
Prolog programmers learn early to use recursion to break a problem into smaller pieces and pass those pieces down in recursive calls until a solution can be found.
In Prolog you usually have to prune the set of solutions to keep a Prolog program from taking too long to compute.
In a declarative language, you describe the logical interrelationships of your program instead, and let the logic engine determine the exact the flow of execution.

 A goal directed programming language: Prolog
Prolog is a programming language built on the idea of sets of facts and rules for determining facts rather than on the idea of a sequence of executable commands.
To evaluate a program a goal relationship is given to the interpreter which then examines the facts and rules to see (a) if this relationship holds, and (b) if so for which data values it is true.
In practice programs are easier to understand if they are thought of as a set of callable procedures.

 Logic Programming and Prolog
Prolog [100] is the most popular logic programming language.
Logic Programming [73] is a well-known programming paradigm based on a subset of First Order Logic--named Horn Clause Logic.
The semantics of Prolog are heavily based on the ordering adopted by the two selection functions--which is fundamental for the correct behaviour of the various extra-logical features of the language.
