(ALF) A language by Rudolf Opalla which combinesfunctional programming and logic programming techniques.ALF is based on Horn clause logic with equality whichconsists of predicates and Horn clauses for logicprogramming, and functions and equations for functionalprogramming. Any functional expression can be used in agoal literal and arbitrary predicates can occur inconditions of equations. ALF uses narrowing andrewriting.ALF includes a compiler to Warren Abstract Machine code andrun-time support.
