Logic Programming: Fundamentals and Applications

What Is Logic Programming

A paradigm for computer programming known as logic programming is one that relies heavily on formal logic. Any program that is developed in a logic programming language is merely a collection of statements that are formatted in a logical manner and represent facts and rules regarding a particular issue domain. The answer set programming (ASP) and the Datalog programming languages belong to the major families of logic programming languages. Clauses are the fundamental unit of expression for writing rules in each of these languages:

H :- B1, ..., Bn.
