Abstract
Prolog
is logic programming languages for AI, based on predicate logic. This chapter discusses the structure, syntax, and semantics of Prolog language, provides comparison with procedural language like C, interpretation of predicate logic and that of Prolog, both formally as well through worked out examples, and explain how the recursion is definition as well solution of a problem, and explains with simple examples as how the control sequencing takes place in Prolog. Use of two open source compilers of prolog using simple worked out examples is demonstrated. Each concept of Prolog and logic programming is explained with the help of worked out examples. At the end, a brief summary gives glimpse of the chapter, followed with number of exercises to strengthen the learning.
