Thirdly, it occurs to me that there could be other beginners in Prolog who
have not found a suitable summary of what the difference between just Prolog
is, and Prolog with CLP, and who might find my own description helpful. My
book on Prolog, "PROLOG Programming For Artificial Intelligence," which I do
think is a good book, explains this difference in detail and with examples,
but not quite in the same way.
Dirk, I seem to have misinterpreted the above as meaning that you wrote
the book you mentioned. Sorry about that.
