Ye Olde Clue

Random musings on random stuff.

Interesting project

Interesting project: http://yieldprolog.sourceforge.net/ noting here since it's somewhere I'll come back to, and it strikes me that others would find it interesting too.

ooh.  That does look nice :)

I wonder if I should try and port my old text adventures written in prolog to python using this?  On second thoughts...  the world doesn't really need another reincarnation of 'Attack of the vampire munchkins!!!'

What about Tiny Prolog? #

Mmmh... what exactly is the point of writing for loops, thus losing the conciseness of Prolog? I'm a bit puzzled by the Yield Prolog project... I just prefer the taste of Tiny Prolog (*) when it comes to embed Prolog-like reasoning capabilities directly in Python code.

(*) The site is in Japanese, but the code should be quite clear! ;-)

Does it need a point? :) #

Subject for reply might seem pithy, but I don't actually see a need for all software written to have a point beyond being fun. yield prolog just struck me as interesting since a) prolog in most forms is interesting, if brain damaging b) it's an unusual use case for generators that I'd not seen before. Thanks for the tiny prolog link - interesting :)
