Here is some student feedback:
``It is a friendly and easy to use Prolog tutor which runs under Windows 3.1. You read the tutor in one window and operate the Prolog engine in another, so doing the exercises is a breeze.``The main exercise is an adventure game, and you also build a genealogical database and an order entry system.
``I've only taken it as far as the end of the second chapter and have yet to find material which hasn't been covered in our lectures, but so far it has been both entertaining and educational.''
COMPUTER LOVE by Llewelyn Richards. He holds my hand. With the other he says, "Look! I press these keys, and then, on the screen it should ..." It doesn't. "I need another program step. Perhaps I could ..." He pecks, one handed, and thinks. I muse. If I took My hand away would he notice? My reflection shook On the screen when I laughed, but it was no good; He just went on - my gesture wasn't seen nor understood. I see his gestures. What do they mean? Into a hook He bends his spare finger. A quick lunge. It jags a key; Taps next; gently rubs; straightens and stabs; as told By the brain. Each movement displays a mood momentarily. But no fire runs back from key to man. The hand I hold I squeeze. That fire runs to burn him, and as a plus, On program over-ride I get a kiss. The cursor winks at us.
