In my previous post, I showed how to build a C-based Windows DLL to execute Prolog predicates in the Sicstus Prolog engine. Today, I want to show how to build an executable (on Windows) from a C/C++ program that uses Sicstus prolog engine. The process is quite simple. In order to make things interesting, I am […]
Last week I upgraded to the latest version (4.4.1) of Sicstus Prolog for Windows. Since the Prolog engine can be embedded (royalty free) in other applications, it is useful to understand how to create a DLL (on Windows) for this purpose. In today’s article, I would like to outline this process in sufficient detail because I found […]
Title: Design Patterns in Modern C++ – Reusable Approaches for Object-Oriented Software Design Author: Dmitri Nesteruk Publisher: Apress Year: 2018 Luck has been on my side for the past few weeks; I have been getting access to nice books to read. I wrote about The Modern C++ Challenge in my last post. Today, I am going […]
Title: The Modern C++ Challenge Author: Marius Bancilla Publisher: Packt Publishing Year: May 2018 This week I have been going through a new book titled The Modern C++ Challenge written by Marius Bancilla. The book is a collection of programming problems (along with suggested solutions) targeting C++ . The title of the book is a […]
In my earlier article Calling Go Functions from Lisp, I explained the steps for making calls to Go functions from another language, specifically LispWorks Lisp. Today, I want to give a slightly more interesting example showing the use of Go channels through exported functions. Go is widely admired for its native support for concurrency via Goroutines. […]
In the previous post, we saw how to invoke a Go function from Lisp. In today’s post, I would like to explain how to go in the other direction, namely, how to call Lisp functins from Go. There are two ways to do this. The first approach is to load the Lisp DLL (like any […]
For the past few weeks I was travelling in the USA and had the pleasure of meeting several friends, some of whom are senior developers and architects. It was interesting to learn that many of them were either using Go language in their daily work, or were passionately endorsing the language! Due to lack of […]
A few weeks ago I had written about my brief experiment with Mathematica’s new feature, which provides answers to questions based on given text. After that post, I spent some time thinking about how to implement something similar. In today’s post, I want to show you what I have been able to do in the […]
I had written a series of posts on my iLangGen framework last year. It aims to provide a flexible and expressive approach for building natural language generation systems. In today’s post, I would like to describe a concrete example of how iLangGen can be used for generating natural language text from structured data, aided by […]
About 10 days ago, I received an update for Mathematica. The latest version is 11.3.0. As usual, I looked through the list of new features in this release. There are several new features, but one of them attracted my attention immediately: There is a new function FindTextualAnswer that, given a piece of text and a question, can […]
