PROLOG is like riding a bike with your front directed backwards. Even if
you are a good biker you will have a lot of troubles to ride a bike that way.
So be patient and go on even though your first tries may end in the trench
besides the road.
I think it would be much easier learning PROLOG without any knowledge of other
languages.
