Logic Programming is the name given to a distinctive style of
programming, very different from that of conventional programming
languages such as C++ and Java. By far the most widely used Logic
Programming language is Prolog. Prolog is a good choice for developing
complex applications, especially in the field of Artificial
Intelligence. Logic Programming with Prolog does not assume that the
reader is an experienced programmer or has a background in
Mathematics, Logic or Artificial Intelligence. It starts from scratch
and aims to arrive at the point where quite powerful programs can be
written in the language. It is intended both as a textbook for an
introductory course and as a self-study book. On completion readers
will know enough to use Prolog in their own research or practical
projects. Each chapter has self-assessment exercises so that readers
may check their own progress. A glossary of the technical terms used
completes the book. This second edition has been revised to be fully
compatible with SWI-Prolog, a popular multi-platform public domain
implementation of the language. Additional chapters have been added
covering the use of Prolog to analyse English sentences and to
illustrate how Prolog can be used to implement applications of an
'Artificial Intelligence' kind. Max Bramer is Emeritus Professor of
Information Technology at the University of Portsmouth, England. He
has taught Prolog to undergraduate computer science students and used
Prolog in his own work for many years.
