Now, however, I have been experimenting with Borland's Turbo Prolog on the GRiD, and I have a few questions: 1) Is there a generally recognized 'best' Prolog for the PC? 2) Is it a compiler, is it expensive? (Turbo is a compiler, cheap) 3) does it support calling C functions? (Turbo does) 4) does it include the clause() and call() clauses? (Turbo does not) 5) how rough is the PD C-Prolog? 6) how about prolog for the Amiga? (drool) Thankyou for your comments, flames welcome (ward off frostbite :-) ...sjk -- * Defence & Civil Institute * ...!utzoo!dciem!king * of Environmental Medicine * Stephen J King - Simulation & Training Group - (416) 635-2149
