      XPost: comp.theory, comp.lang.prolog       From: janburse@fastmail.fm              Hi,              So you say I was your logic teacher? I doubt       so. Who was your logic teacher from the cradle       to the appearance of the internet, when              you still had to carry heavy paper books, while       visiting the lake front in summer, looking for       a shadowy tree, and the enjoying some logic?              What books did you read ? What people did you know ?              Bye              olcott schrieb:       > On 11/18/2025 3:46 PM, Mild Shock wrote:       >        >       > *I remember you in the Prolog Group*       > *I remember you in the Prolog Group*       > *I remember you in the Prolog Group*       >       > The Liar Paradox formalized in the Prolog Programming language       >       > This sentence is not true.       > It is not true about what?       > It is not true about being not true.       > It is not true about being not true about what?       > It is not true about being not true about being not true.       > Oh I see you are stuck in a loop!       >       >       > This is formalized in the Prolog programming language       > ?- LP = not(true(LP)).       > LP = not(true(LP)).       > ?- unify_with_occurs_check(LP, not(true(LP))).       > false.       >       > Failing an occurs check seems to mean that the       > resolution of an expression remains stuck in       > an infinite loop.
