YAP Built-ins

This chapter describes the core predicates that control the execution of Prolog programs, provide fundamental functionality such as termm manipulation or arithmetic, and support interaction with external resources, Many of the predicates described here have been standardised by the ISO. The standartised subset of Proloh also known as ISO-Prolog.

In the description of the arguments of functors the following notation will be used:

  • a preceding plus sign will denote an argument as an "input argument" - it cannot be a free variable at the time of the call;

  • a preceding minus sign will denote an "output argument";

  • an argument with no preceding symbol can be used in both ways.
