Ah the Ivan Bratko book was the textbook at Uni... gosh 13 years ago. I loved doing Prolog and once the penny drops it makes you feel very clever thinking about things differently.
I'm not certain it's useful in the real world, but I did write a solitaire solver in it that could work with any number of decks and consequent stacks.
- agumonkey 10y agoI find it extremely refreshing to wander around a new paradigm. After some webdev and even FP fatigue, logic variables really opened some perspectives on things. Actually, it felt like an extension of FP; imperative are memory -> memory, FP would be thought as one path of expression -> env -> expression through an evaluation graph walk; prolog is breadth search of the whole graph. It blends programs with space in an interesting way, it did alter my mind a fair amount.
