Trilogy :
A strongly typed logic programming language
with numerical constraint-solving over the natural
numbers, developed by Paul Voda
at UBC in 1988. Trilogy is syntactically a blend of
Prolog, Lisp, and Pascal. It contains three types of
clauses:_predicates_({backtracking">clauses: predicates ({backtracking but no assignable
variables), procedures (if-then-else but no backtracking;
assignable variables), and subroutines (like procedures, but
with input and system calls; callable only from top level or
from other subroutines).
Development of Trilogy I stopped in 1991. Trilogy II,
developed by Paul Voda 1988-92, was a declarative general
purpose programming language, used for teaching and to write
CL.
