Algebraic Logic Functional language
<language> (ALF) A language by Rudolf Opalla
<opalla@julien.informatik.uni-dortmund.de> which combines functional
programming and logic programming techniques.
ALF is based on Horn clause logic with equality which consists of predicates and
Horn clauses for logic programming, and functions and equations for functional
programming. Any functional expression can be used in a goal literal and
arbitrary predicates can occur in conditions of equations. ALF uses narrowing
and rewriting.
ALF includes a compiler to Warren Abstract Machine code and run-time support.
