Sooo.. what is the modern equivalent of Prolog?
Well, first, I wouldn't agree entirely that Prolog is "not modern". Anyway... If you want something wih more bells and whistles, modularity, coroutining, more security (less power, e.g. no program auto-modification), etc., - see Mercury. http://www.cs.mu.oz.au/research/mercury/information/features.html http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercury_(programming_language) http://www.cs.kuleuven.ac.be/~dtai/projects/ALP/newsletter/archive_93_96/net /systems/mercury1.html and also: http://lambda-the-ultimate.org/node/890 Perhaps somebody can say more about constraint languages which replaced Prolog in some contexts as well. Have fun. Jerzy Karczmarczuk
