Hello! I recently graduated from BSUIR (Belarus) and now considering using prolog in my master thesis next year. Unfortunately, there aren’t much decent online resourses to learn about prolog. I flipped through [http://learnprolognow.org](https://t.co/whGyUOczPK?amp=1), but it’s merely an introduction. There were some advanced topics on [http://edu.swi-prolog.org](https://t.co/D3qY92oCf9?amp=1), but for some reason platform has been closed. Can you, please, suggest some other learning resources? Are there any decent MOOCs? Thank you in advance. ---

What’s a MOOC? - The book “The Art of Prolog” - possibly the book “Simply Logical”. Available here: [https://github.com/simply-logical/simply-logical/releases/download/v1.0/SL.pdf](https://github.com/simply-logical/simply-logical/releases/download/v1.0/SL.pdf) - possibly the book “The Power of Prolog”, here: [The Power of Prolog](https://www.metalevel.at/prolog) - And here’s a long list of Prolog resources: [https://www.metalevel.at/](https://www.metalevel.at/) Bye, Volker ---

Thanks for the response, I’ll definitely try it. ---

[The Craft of Prolog](https://mitpress.mit.edu/books/craft-prolog) by Richard O’Keefe. If you’re using Prolog for knowledge representation, there are some books by John Sowa. Also: [http://www.jfsowa.com/](http://www.jfsowa.com/) There’s also Datalog and Datalog-like systems, if you’re interested in accessing structured data using a language better than SQL. Also, Yedalog (not sure of its status). ---

Thanks, I’m specifically interested in knowledge representation and will check it out. ---
