In Defense of Prolog

In a conversation with David Baird, I realized something I really like about Prolog. It has all the strengths of flat files with respect to versioning, backups, and remote access, and it supports a relational model that makes RDBMS look like kids toys. Plus, because it’s code and data, it’s more flexible than either a normal programming language or a normal database.

Of course, it could use some better string functions. :)
