### Constraint Logic Programming (CLP)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Scryer Prolog provides excellent support for Constraint Logic
|
||||||
|
Programming (CLP), which is the amalgamation of
|
||||||
|
Logic Programming (LP) and Constraints.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In addition to built-in support for [`dif/2`](src/prolog/lib/dif.pl),
|
||||||
|
[`freeze/2`](src/prolog/lib/freeze.pl),
|
||||||
|
[CLP(ℤ)](src/prolog/lib/clpz.pl) and [CLP(B)](src/prolog/lib/clpb.pl),
|
||||||
|
Scryer provides a convenient way to implement new user-defined
|
||||||
|
constraints: *Attributed variables* are available via
|
||||||
|
[`library(atts)`](src/prolog/lib/atts.pl) as in SICStus Prolog,
|
||||||
|
which is one of the most sophisticated and fastest constraint systems
|
||||||
|
in existence.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
These features make Scryer Prolog an ideal platform for teaching,
|
||||||
|
learning and developing portable CLP applications.
