Hi, I was wondering, if I have a bunch of facts in WM then I can create rules that will be applied to each fact. However, how do I create a rule that will wait for all of those rules to finish? And what happens if they create new facts that rules need to be applied to?
What I have is a bunch of facts that are date based and re-occuring. Kind of like monthly appointments. Each Appointment is a fact and there may be subsequent appointments until a certain date. Once that happens, then I would like another rule to fire that would total all of the appointments and list them. I could create a list and add them to the list and then process the list, but how would I know when all of the appointments were done and generated? I am just getting started in "declarative" programming. I did a lot of Prolog but it was fifteen years ago. I reviewed my prolog and RDF and they seem close but not exact. I am trying to avoid forcing the rules into an imperative form. Suggestions would be welcome! thanks, Mark -- Mark Stang <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
