Even the "not so good books" describe this. Is it necessary to talk to your junior colleagues in this tone of voice? # ...a meta-interpreter could handle the symmetry, transitivity, etc. of # all relations declared as such. One implementation technique that can # be used in such a meta-interpreter is to examine the goal stack for an # earlier call-frame that matches the current call frame. This works, but # it's costly......... I hadn't thought of that. It is a fascinating possibility. Have you actually implemented anything this way? -- Ken Johnson -- //// Advice to dieters: //// Ken Johnson, A I Applications Institute //// Never eat more than //// 80 South Bridge, EDINBURGH EH1 1HN //// you can carry. //// E-mail ken@aiai.ed.ac.uk //// -- Miss Piggy //// phone 031-650 2756 fax 031-650 6513
