This is called declarative programming (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Declarative_programming http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Declarative_programming), as opposed to imperative programming.
- jng 15y agoSure, sorry, didn't mention on the article, Prolog is the closest thing that exists, although I think Prolog commits at least one cardinal sin that breaks the really great properties (/cut/) and it just doesn't get deep enough.
- simon_weber 15y agoProlog is a kind of declarative programming, but the two concepts are not the same. From the link: "declarative programming is a programming paradigm that expresses the logic of a computation without describing its control flow." This can be implemented in any way one desires.
- MattGrommes 15y agoYou probably already know this but you should really save yourself a million comments and put an update in the article that shows you already know about Prolog. :)
