   Writing an expert system can be as complex or easy as the domain   
   requires.   
   If you are completely new to the process and are looking for something   
   to understand the expert system, it would make sense that you start   
   with PROLOG. It is a easy to use programming language that can be   
   easily used to make simple if...then rule based expert systems. Since   
   PROLOG handles unification (lookup: unification algorithm)   
   automatically, it is a lot easier to make (SIMPLE) a rule based expert   
   system in PROLOG.   
      
   Let us know how it goes
