Contents
Logic programming is a way of declarative programming, i.e. the program does not describe how a problem must be solved, but only what the problem to be solved is. As opposed to conventional, imperative programming languages a program does not consist of a recipe to solve the problem, but it describes in an often simple logical language what the relevant properties of the problem are to find a solution.  In this course the language PROLOG is used.
