[net.ai] Functional and logic programming

rggoebel@water.UUCP (Randy Goebel LPAIG) (02/25/85)

Does any one have any suggestions for a textbook for a fourth year
course in functional and logic programming?  Landin's book ``Functional
programming: application and implementation'' is one possible book;
Burge's ``Recursive programming techniques'' is another.   

The objective of the course is to introduce the notion of functional
and logic programming, explain their foundations, investigate their
relationships (as currently understood), and provide experience in
designing functional and logic programs.

We have fp, nial, lisp (Franz, Waterloo), Prolog (Waterloo Prolog,
Waterloo Unix Prolog, Waterloo University Prolog, CProlog, MU-Prolog,
microProlog) from which to choose.

I would appreciate advice from anyone with experience in such a course.
