Prolog

Also known as Programming in Logic

programmeertaal

AI overview

Prolog is a programming language designed to solve problems by working with logical rules and facts, rather than giving step-by-step instructions like most programming languages do. It emerged from research in artificial intelligence and related fields, making it particularly useful for applications that involve reasoning, proving statements, and understanding language.

Prolog (uit het Frans "programmation en logique", "programmeren met logica") is een logische programmeertaal. De taal is gebaseerd op predicatenlogica en heeft een sterk declaratief karakter. In plaats van de stappen die tot de oplossing van een probleem leiden, worden de voorwaarden waaraan de oplossing moet voldoen in logische termen beschreven. Vandaar dat Prolog een (grotendeels) declaratieve taal is.
