Teaching and learning mathematics with Prolog

Computers and Society 2021-08-24 v1

Abstract

Procedural computer languages have long been used in many aspects of mathematics pedagogy. In this work, we examine the use of Prolog, a declarative language for the same purpose. We find the facts+rules aspect of Prolog to be a novel platform for developing coding lessons to supplement the learning of mathematics. Specific examples are presented.
