Prolog Tutorial 1: Basics and Fundamentals, York University

This video introduces the fundamentals of Prolog, a logic programming language widely used in artificial intelligence. The tutorial covers basic Prolog concepts, including setting up a Prolog environment, defining facts and rules, querying knowledge bases, and understanding inference mechanisms in Prolog. Through hands-on exercises, students learn how Prolog performs logical reasoning using backward chaining, how to structure simple family relationships, and how to use queries to extract information. Learning Outcomes: By the end of this session, students will be able to: ✔ Set up and run Prolog in a suitable development environment. ✔ Define facts and rules in Prolog and load them into the interpreter. ✔ Write and execute queries to retrieve information from a Prolog knowledge base. ✔ Understand the inference mechanism and how Prolog evaluates rules recursively. ✔ Apply Prolog logic to basic family relationships and other simple domain models. I used SWI-Prolog for all the examples. If you'd like to do the examples: • Install SWI-Prolog from https://www.swi-prolog.org/download/s.... • Create a folder named “prolog_tutorial” (or any name you’d like) in your home directory. Save your .pl files in this folder. • You can use a text editor like VS Code and install a Prolog extension to make editing easier. • Note: you should always run your Prolog programs in the same directory where your Prolog file is.
