Synopsis

This book concentrates on the techniques required to bridge the gap between man and machine, techniques which are the very essence of writing and producing good, clear application programs. The reader studying this text, by following it on a personal or other computer, will become experienced enough to design, structure and write his or her own set of PROLOG rules which together can be combined to form an expert system; as well as write programs showing a degree of artificial intelligence. There has long been a need for this practical approach to explain how to do useful things with PROLOG, how to write applications (rather than toy examples), linking the ability of this logic programming language to the pragmatic considerations of software authorship. The reader can benefit from Dr Hepburn's experience as a user to tackle the problems posed by real PROLOG programs and will be equally valuable to the professional and the learner alike.
