Logic Programming is a form of declarative programming that has its roots in first-order predicate logic and automated theorem proving based on the resolution method.

This introductory course covers the fundamental topics of logic programming such as the rule-based syntax, procedural and declarative semantics, the treatment of negation, the logic programming language PROLOG, and answer set programming (ASP).
