I'm not a big expert, but I learned the most important thing is -- abandon everything you learned about programming in FORTRAN, C or Pascal. <br></p><p><br></p><p><br>And a funny thing -- <strong>Prolog</strong> is exactly the same as simple planners. You write operators (you may call them "procedures") and the <strong>Prolog</strong> system searches depth-first to find a sequence of them that will reach the goal of completing the top-level goal (you may call that a "command"). <br></p><p><br></p><p><br>On the "millions of options" front, does the Richtext have a CODE option or something. No matter what I seem to do, the example programs and even output data from programs, seems to get royally screwed up when I insert it. You seem to  get double spaced lines that look like normal text, or you get itty bitty printing and everything run into 1 line. <br></p><p><br></p><p><br>The example <strong>Prolog</strong> code is still messed up somewhere between these 2 extremes and is essentially unreadable by man or machine. <br></p>kymhorsellTue, 04 Sep 2007 15:40:19 -0000http://ausrobotics.com/2007/09/a_simple_strips_robot_using_warplan_prolog/#comment-3661373<p><br>I haven't done any Prolog programming since I last touched it at uni but it seems pretty logical to me (pun not originally intended until I realised what I had written :).<br></p><p><br></p><p><br>I might have to check out your planner as well once I get a platform to test it on. I finally shelled out and bought a good bluetooth dongle today so I should be able to connect to my Mindstorms kits and send and receive data while the little guy is driving around the room :) <br></p>ashTue, 04 Sep 2007 00:48:53 -0000
