15 Facts About Logic programming
1.
2.
Any program written in a logic programming language is a set of sentences in logical form, expressing facts and rules about some problem domain.

4.
Where "Logic programming" represents a logic program and "Control" represents different theorem-proving strategies.
| FactSnippet No. 1,567,603 |
5.
The inclusion of negation as failure means that logic programming is a kind of non-monotonic logic.

6.
In particular, Prakken and Sartor credit the representation of the British Nationality Act as a logic program with being "hugely influential for the development of computational representations of legislation, showing how logic programming enables intuitively appealing representations that can be directly deployed to generate automatic inferences".

8.
Abductive logic programming has been used for fault diagnosis, planning, natural language processing and machine learning.
| FactSnippet No. 1,567,607 |
9.
Metalogic programming allows object-level and metalevel representations to be combined, as in natural language.
| FactSnippet No. 1,567,608 |
10.
Metalogic is used in logic programming to implement metaprograms, which manipulate other programs, databases, knowledge bases or axiomatic theories as data.

11.
Constraint logic programming has been used to solve problems in such fields as civil engineering, mechanical engineering, digital circuit verification, automated timetabling, air traffic control, and finance.

12.
Arguably, concurrent logic programming is based on message passing, so it is subject to the same indeterminacy as other concurrent message-passing systems, such as Actors.
| FactSnippet No. 1,567,611 |
13.
Carl Hewitt has argued that concurrent logic programming is not based on logic in his sense that computational steps cannot be logically deduced.
| FactSnippet No. 1,567,612 |
14.
Inductive logic programming is concerned with generalizing positive and negative examples in the context of background knowledge: machine learning of logic programs.
| FactSnippet No. 1,567,613 |
15.
Some early designs of logic programming languages based on linear logic include LO, Lolli, ACL, and Forum.
