Description
The Reasoned Schemer (Second Edition) This second edition of The Reasoned Schemer presents an elegant little programming language for logic programming in a humorous question-and-answer style. It aims to show the beauty and elegance of relational programming, which captures the essence of logic programming. The book guides you through implementing a relational programming language in Scheme or any other functional language, demonstrating its remarkable flexibility. Familiarity with a functional language or the first five chapters of The Little Schemer is assumed. This edition simplifies the programming language and implementation, while adding explicit "Translation" rules to ease translation of Scheme functions into relations. By following this book's pedagogical method, you'll gain insight into relational programming and its applications.
