How do I compile my Python program to a .jar with Jython?

I don't know how to compile my prolog program. I'm using "SWI-Prolog" but I don't know how to compile my prolog program. I just typed it and saved in a directory. How do I do to compile it in the main screen? I tried ? - "['C:/Prolog/myfirstprolog']"

  • Answer:

    To complement 's answer, if you're using Unix/Linux or the command line, I find it best to open a shell, navigate to where the program is and load it with: [name]. With name being the program. Don't use the '.pl' extension. So if I have a module to do basic statistics in /home/alan/Prolog/http://stats.pl, I open a shell and: cd /home/alan/Prolog swipl ?- [stats]. % load my 'http://stats.pl' program ?- meanNums([2,4,5], Mean). Mean = 3.6666666666666665. The full stop / period after the program name ("[stats].") is essential.

Suppose you want to distribute only the binary and not your source code, then what you need is to create a "saved state", and specify a "main predicate" where you program starts from. For example, for your program, if your entry point is the predicate main: swipl --goal=main --stand-alone=true -o starts -c http://starts.pl and main would be: main :-     write('List=?'),     read(List),     meanNums(List, Mean),     format('Mean=~w~n', [Mean]).

If you are on Windows, you should be able to click on your file (if you named it something.pl) to run it, otherwise take a look at the FAQ http://www.swi-prolog.org/FAQ/LoadProgram.html
