		roberthahn on Dec 13, 2013 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Prolog for Programmers I found this (closed) SO question asking what Prolog is good for in the real world. (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/130097/real-world-prolog-...) I think it's a great question, so I'm going to re-ask it here: What do YOU use Prolog for? One reason why I'm interested in Prolog is because I used to work at a semantic web company[1], and it seems to me like Prolog could work well in that domain. Thanks for posting this resource. I'd love to learn more. So much to do, so little time! [1]http://primal.com/

I try to write a little database system in Haskell, inspired by Prolog, because it seems very natural and simple to query Prolog. If you have lots of different relations between data, Prolog is a good choice.
