Some of the Scryer Prolog features are:

|

* ISO standard compliant
|

* Integrated constraint progamming libraries: clp(B), clp(Z).
|

* Definite Clause Grammars
|

* Coroutining support (`dif/2`, `freeze/2`, ...)

## Where can I learn Prolog?
|
||||
|

There are a lot of classical Prolog books. Those books can teach you the basics of Prolog. Some
|

examples are: _The Art of Prolog (Shapiro)_, _Programming in Prolog (Cloksin, Mellish)_ and _The Craft
|
||||
examples are: _The Art of Prolog (Shapiro)_, _Programming in Prolog (Clocksin, Mellish)_ and _The Craft
|
||||
of Prolog (O'Keefe)_. However, most of them are not updated to _modern_ Prolog.
|
||||
We recommend _[The Power of Prolog (Markus Triska)](https://www.metalevel.at/prolog)_ for modern Prolog. For reference about
|
||||
the builtin Prolog modules and libraries in Scryer, check the documentation site. It's this!
