As a learning exercise and to create simple examples for myself, I worked through different ways to translate an input list into an output list, and to look at their efficiency using the time clause. Here’s what I came up with for anyone interested. :- module(translate, [translate_td/2, …

[image] joeblog: I’m somewhat at a loss why people thump The Craft of Prolog like it’s the bible. Don’t forget that The Craft of Prolog was written 30 years ago. It’s stood up pretty well. Anyway, a couple of reasons why people like me keep on recommending it: because it goes into deep des…

I’d like to (since I regularly update stuff and am still learning how on the swish site), but there doesn’t seem to and editing option on my original post. The most current link is https://swish.swi-prolog.org/p/Iteration1.swinb

Appologies if that came across as a criticism of either you or the book. I’ve just had a lot “Tis written in the ancient scriptures, so you can’t argue…” in my life recently (unrelated to my Prolog hobby), which gets my hackles up since I like to think of myself as a scientist/engineer type, not a c…

Thanks Paul. I’ve submitted it to https://prologhub.pl/ for moderation, but not sure if it worked (I find all these different CMS systems a bit of a nightmare).

Thanks Joe, it’s an external blog post with a link to SWISH rather than a blog post, I can remake it as such but then it would be my name on it and I’d rather it were yours!

Hi Paul I just keep on getting an error message when I submit it for moderation with no clue what I’ve done wrong, so maybe its easiest for you to put up. As someone who has spent most of his life working for newspapers, I know few people read bylines anyway. BTW, there’s a typo of my name which I…

Ok, I’ll get onto fixing/debugging, see what that error might be. Fixed the typo (sorry, that was me), published the post (thank you!), still need to track down where the “submit for moderation” bug is…

As far as I understand SWISH, updating involves creating a new URL, which makes it a bit tricky to make edits. Ideally, I’d like to keep the same URL, but that doesn’t seem possible.
