[comp.lang.prolog] Prolog dialects

bllklly@olsen.UUCP (William Kelly) (09/11/89)

I have several books that teach or use Prolog.
No two seem to use exactly the same syntax or names for standard predicates.
I started compiling a table of dialects to refer to, but I wondered:
   --if anyone has already compiled or posted a list of equivalent constructs in
     different Prologs?
   --if there is interest in my posting what I come up with?
Apologies if this is an old topic.  If people mail me info on dialects they
are familiar with, I'll be happy to incorporate them.  I'll be starting with
Sterling & Shapiro, the C Prolog manual and a description of VM Prolog (or
whatever the IBM mainframe version is called).

Yes.  I posted a message just last week summarizing the responses I got.  I
believe the subject was "Different syntaxes".  Your news program should have
commands to search the subject lines.

Hope this helps.

Thank you and happy hunting!             Actually: Ethan M. Young
