Download or read book The Art of Prolog second edition written by Leon S. Sterling and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 1994-03-10 with total page 553 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new edition of The Art of Prolog contains a number of important changes. Most background sections at the end of each chapter have been updated to take account of important recent research results, the references have been greatly expanded, and more advanced exercises have been added which have been used successfully in teaching the course. Part II, The Prolog Language, has been modified to be compatible with the new Prolog standard, and the chapter on program development has been significantly altered: the predicates defined have been moved to more appropriate chapters, the section on efficiency has been moved to the considerably expanded chapter on cuts and negation, and a new section has been added on stepwise enhancement—a systematic way of constructing Prolog programs developed by Leon Sterling. All but one of the chapters in Part III, Advanced Prolog Programming Techniques, have been substantially changed, with some major rearrangements. A new chapter on interpreters describes a rule language and interpreter for expert systems, which better illustrates how Prolog should be used to construct expert systems. The chapter on program transformation is completely new and the chapter on logic grammars adds new material for recognizing simple languages, showing how grammars apply to more computer science examples.

It is indeed a game for all ages: from kids in preschool to grown-ups. It is possible to form and solve a Sudoku puzzle with letters or even some symbols. A classic Sudoku puzzle is an 81-cell square grid made up of 3 x 3 subgrids or 9 smaller blocks, also known as regions and boxes. Some cells already include numbers (called as givens). The game aims to fill all the blank cells with one digit from 1 to 9 in such a way without ever repeating a single one in the same row or the same column, or in the same block to solve it correctly. Because the word Sudoku is the abbreviation of a Japanese expression: suji wa dokushin ni kagiru (Su means digit and doku means single. Thus, every number must be unique). On the other hand, you must use all of nine set of 1 to 9 digits to solve it correctly. Every invalid puzzle has more than a single and unique solution. This book contains 512 puzzles in 4 levels of difficulty levels: simple, easy, intermediate, and expert with solutions. Each level has 128 grids. We also have designed 100 books including 51200 puzzles. As, the puzzles with large size is easy to use, each page consists of only two grids. Also, each grid has some useful information such as the given numbers and difficulty degree. The difficulty of a grid is wholly related to some details including the number of givens and also the rules that a solver may apply to complete it. We have estimated it based on weighted parameters such as the number of givens, Singles, hidden singles, naked pairs, hidden pairs, pointing pairs/triples, box/line intersections, guesses, and backtracks.
