An Introduction to C Programming serves as the foundational step in learning one of the most widely used and powerful programming languages in computer science. C was developed in the early 1970s by Dennis Ritchie at Bell Labs and has become the backbone of modern programming due to its versatility and efficiency.

Logic programming is a paradigm of programming based on formal logic, where programs are written as a set of logical statements or rules. These statements express relationships between objects and conditions, and the program operates by applying logical inference to derive conclusions from these facts and rules. The primary language used in logic programming is Prolog, which allows for declarative problem-solving by focusing on what the problem is, rather than how to solve it. The system automatically searches for solutions through backtracking, making it particularly useful in fields like artificial intelligence, natural language processing, and expert systems.

Introduction to Logic Programming using Prolog covers the fundamentals of Prolog, a declarative programming language based on formal logic. In Prolog, programs are written as a set of facts, rules, and queries, where the system attempts to answer queries by applying logical inference to the facts and rules provided. Unlike imperative programming languages, Prolog focuses on what the problem is, rather than how to solve it, making it particularly suited for tasks involving symbolic reasoning, such as artificial intelligence, natural language processing, and expert systems. The key concepts in Prolog include predicates, facts, rules, and backtracking, which allow for efficient problem-solving through logical deductions.
