This folder contains an object which implements a translator from
first-order predicate logic propositions to conjunctive normal form
and to clausal form. The translator code is partially based on code
published in the book "Programming in Prolog" by W. F. Clocksin and
C. S. Mellish.
The following operators are used for representing logic connectives:
negation: ~
disjunction: v
conjunction: &
implication: =>
equivalence: <=>
Quantifiers are represented using the following notation:
universal: all(X, P)
existential: exists(X, P)
The two main object predicates are translate/2 and step_by_step/2.
The first predicate, translate/2, translate a logic proposition to
a list of clauses. The second predicate, step_by_step/2, performs
the same translations as translate/2 but also prints the results
of each conversion step.
