List Prolog Interpreter (LPI) makes it easier to generate List Prolog programs. It works by interpreting different versions of Prolog that are in a list format. Using an algorithm that was written in SWI-Prolog, it easily parses and runs List Prolog code.

Getting Started

Please read the following instructions on how to install the project on your computer for writing code.

Prerequisites

Please download and install SWI-Prolog for your machine at https://www.swi-prolog.org/build/.
You may need to install gawk using Homebrew.
Install Translation Shell on Mac, etc. Change line in

culturaltranslationtool/ctt2.pl
trans_location("../../../gawk/trans").

to correct location of trans.

1. Install manually

Download this repository, the Languages repository (which enables List Prolog Interpreter to be run in different languages), SSI and Cultural Translation Tool.

2. Or Install from List Prolog Package Manager (LPPM)

Download the LPPM Repository:

mkdir GitHub
cd GitHub/
git clone https://github.com/luciangreen/List-Prolog-Package-Manager.git
cd List-Prolog-Package-Manager
swipl
['lppm'].
lppm_install("luciangreen","listprologinterpreter").
halt

Running

In Shell: cd listprologinterpreter swipl ['listprolog'].
Running the tests To run all tests, enter: test(off,NTotal,Score).

To run a specific test: test1(off,TestNumber,Passed). where TestNumber is the test number from lpiverify4.pl.

Example of an end to end test The query test1(Debug,1,Passed). where Debug (trace)=off tests the following predicate:

test(1,[[n,function],[1,1,[v,c]]],
[
        [[n,function],[[v,a],[v,b],[v,c]],":-",
        [
                [[n,+],[[v,a],[v,b],[v,c]]]
        ]
        ]
]
,[[[[v,c], 2]]]).

This query contains the query tested, the predicate and the required result.

Also, the query test1(off,7,Passed).

test(7,[[n,reverse],[[1,2,3],[],[v,l]]],
[
        [[n,reverse],[[],[v,l],[v,l]]],
        [[n,reverse],[[v,l],[v,m],[v,n]],":-",
        [       [[n,head],[[v,l],[v,h]]],
                [[n,tail],[[v,l],[v,t]]],
                [[n,wrap],[[v,h],[v,h1]]],
                [[n,append],[[v,h1],[v,m],[v,o]]],
                [[n,reverse],[[v,t],[v,o],[v,n]]]
        ]
        ]
],[[[[v,l], [3, 2, 1]]]]).

tests the reverse predicate.

To run all tests (main, types, open and open types) in any language:

test_all00("en",off,NTotal,Score).
test_all00("en2",off,NTotal,Score).

where "en2" is an English language with e.g. "concatenate strings" instead of stringconcat ("en", or see available language codes - see the Languages repository for instructions about how to install different languages).

Note 1: drag and drop contents of test_open_and_types_open_data/ into an empty file in BBEdit (Mac) to copy and paste into Terminal for tests with input.

To run a test from one of main, types, open or open types, run one of:

test_all01(test,            4,"en2",off,1,Passed).
test_all01(test_types_cases,6,"en2",off,1,Passed).
test_all01(testopen_cases,  3,"en2",off,1,Passed).
test_all01(test_open_types, 5,"en2",off,1,Passed).

where 1 is replaced with the test number from

respectively.

Run Prolog tests:

['lpiverify_pl.pl].
test_pl1(off,A,B).

See note 1 above.

To run all tests (main, types, open and open types) back-translating to and from any language:

test_all_bt00("en2",off,NTotal,Score).

To run a test from one of main, types, open or open types, run one of:

test_all_bt01(test,            4,"en2",off,1,Passed).
test_all_bt01(test_types_cases,6,"en2",off,1,Passed).
test_all_bt01(testopen_cases,  3,"en2",off,1,Passed).
test_all_bt01(test_open_types, 5,"en2",off,1,Passed).

where 1 is replaced with the test number from

respectively.

See note 1 above.

LPI API

To run LPI on a Prolog server:
Move lpi-api.pl to the root (/username/ or ~ on a server) of your machine.
Re-enter the paths to your Prolog files in it.
Enter [lpi-api.pl] in SWI-Prolog and server(8000)..
On a local host access the algorithm at http://127.0.0.1:8000 and replace 127.0.0.1 with your server address.

* Above: Cycle of Normal Prolog e.g. a(B,C):-d(E),f. to Simple List Prolog e.g. 
[[f1, [a, b, c, d, e], (:-),
[[+, [a, b, f]],
[+, [c, f, g]],
[+, [d, g, h]],
[=, [e, h]]]]]

[
[[n,function],[[v,a],[v,b],[v,c]],":-",
[
  [[n,+],[[v,a],[v,b],[v,c]]]
  ]
]
]
(Simple-List-Prolog-to-List-Prolog) back to Normal Prolog (List-Prolog-to-Prolog-Converter).

See Simple-List-Prolog-to-List-Prolog, Prolog-to-List-Prolog (includes Prolog to Simple List Prolog) and List-Prolog-to-Prolog-Converter.

Occurs Check

To return false if an equals4 variable is in terms of itself, for example:

occurs_check([v,a],[[v,a]]).
false.

then enter turn_occurs_check(on).. To return true. above, indicating any occurrences have been ignored, enter turn_occurs_check(off). (the default).
