Arithmelog

A library of Prolog predicates for CLP(FD) arithmetic.

This module is here to provide simple predicates with descriptive names so that programs dealing with arithmetic become much more readable and declarative. We feel that there is a gap in built-in tools for arithmetic based on CLP(FD).

##How to use

###SWI-Prolog

Arithmelog is self-contained for SWI-Prolog.

###SICStus - Not-fully functional

For SICStus, Arithmelog requires CLP(Z) (by Markus Triska), available here. It also requires module(reif) (by Ulrich Neumerkel), available here.

##Available predicates

###Labeling

unsafe_label/1
unsafe_indomain/1

###Constraints

prime/1
composite/1
even/1
odd/1
divisible_by/2
polygonal_number/2
(<)/1: A list of strictly increasing integers.
(>)/1: A list of strictly decreasing integers.
(=<)/1: A list of increasing integers.
(>=)/1: A list of decreasing integers.
perfect_square/1

###Operators

sum/2
product/2
factorial/2
nth_root/3
floored_sqrt/2

###Miscellaneous

range/3

##Examples

?- prime(X), unsafe_indomain(X).
X = 2 ;
X = 3 ;
X = 5 ;
X = 7 ;
X = 11 ;
X = 13 ;
…


?- prime(X), even(X).
X = 2.


?- composite(X), prime(X).
false.


?- factorial(X, 720).
X = 6.


?- X #> Y, Y#> Z, prime(X), even(Y), composite(Z), divisible_by(Z, 7), product([X,Y,Z],P), unsafe_label([X,Y,Z]).
X = 17,
Y = 16,
Z = 14,
P = 3808 ;
X = 19,
Y = 16,
Z = 14,
P = 4256 ;
X = 19,
Y = 18,
Z = 14,
P = 4788 ;
…


?- range(I, J, [5,A,B,C,D]).
I = 5,
J = D, D = 9,
A = 6,
B = 7,
C = 8 ;
false.
