Prolog \Pro"log\, n. & v.
Prologue.
[1913 Webster]
PROLOG \PRO"LOG\ (pr[=o]"l[o^]g), n. (Computers)
A declarative higher-level programming language in which
instructions are written not as explicit procedural
data-manipulation commands, but as logical statements. The
language has built-in resolution procedures for logical
inference.
[PJC]
higher programming language \higher programming language\ n.
(Computers)
A computer programming language with an instruction set
allowing one instruction to code for several assembly
language instructions.

Note: The aggregation of several assembly-language
instructions into one instruction allows much greater
efficiency in writing computer programs. Most programs
are now written in some higher programming language,
such as BASIC, FORTRAN, COBOL, C, C++,
PROLOG, or JAVA.

Prolog

Programming in Logic or (French) Programmation
en Logique. The first of the huge family of {logic
programming} languages.

Prolog was invented by Alain Colmerauer and Phillipe Roussel
at the University of Aix-Marseille in 1971. It was first
implemented 1972 in ALGOL-W. It was designed originally for
natural-language processing but has become one of the most
widely used languages for artificial intelligence.

It is based on LUSH (or SLD) resolution {theorem
proving} and unification. The first versions had no
user-defined functions and no control structure other than the
built-in depth-first search with backtracking. Early
collaboration between Marseille and Robert Kowalski at
University of Edinburgh continued until about 1975.

Early implementations included C-Prolog, ESLPDPRO,
Frolic, LM-Prolog, Open Prolog, SB-Prolog, {UPMAIL
Tricia Prolog}. In 1998, the most common Prologs in use are
Quintus Prolog, SICSTUS Prolog, LPA Prolog, {SWI
Prolog}, AMZI Prolog, SNI Prolog.

{A Prolog package
(ftp://cpsc.ucalgary.ca/pub/prolog1.1/prolog11.tar.Z)} from
the University of Calgary features delayed goals and
interval arithmetic. It requires Scheme with
continuations.
