eLP: Ergo Lambda Prolog

lang/prolog/impl/prolog/elp/
eLP (Ergo Lambda Prolog) is an interpreter written by Conal Elliott, Frank Pfenning and Dale Miller in Common Lisp and implements the core of lambda Prolog (higher-order hereditary Harrop formulas). It is embedded in a larger development environment called ESS (the Ergo Support System). eLP implements all core language feature and offers a module system, I/O, some facilities for tracing, error handling, arithmetic, recursive top-levels, on-line documentation and a number of extended examples, including many programs from Amy Felty's and John Hannan's thesis. (Lambda Prolog extends Prolog with a polymorphic type system, higher-order programming, simply typed lambda-terms as data structures, higher-order unification, scoping mechanisms for program clauses and parameters, and modules and data abstraction.) **************************************************************** *** Note: Although eLP is still distributed, it is no longer *** *** actively maintained. *** ****************************************************************
