- Dear Bob,
-
- I received your letter and the disk with EDPROLOG today and
- must admit I was very gratified to find you were interested in my
- Tree puzzle program - and thank you for the new ProLog!
-
- I have been happily busy with logic problems and syllogisms since
- doing the Tree puzzle and I include two other of my efforts on this disk.
- All three programs work just fine on my AT&T 6300 and all three have
- simple start-up commands (like "go." or "hello."). My machine does have
- quite a lot of RAM (640k) but, as I understand things, this should not
- pose problems for users with smaller systems since the language only
- makes use of about 256k. I hope this is the case.
-
- You will be interested to know that I have started planning a
- "free university" style course for next semester at the community college
- where I teach. The course, Introduction to ProLog, will be using your
- public domain version of the language and Clocksin & Mellish's book.
- This first offering will probably be limited to other staff members,
- but if all goes well I'll offer it next year to faculty & students. My
- real motive is to enable my own learning as much as to teach the language.
-
- Hope you enjoy the programs. They really were a lot of fun to write.
-
-
-
-
- Sincerely,
-
-
