# Prolog Prologue

This issue of IQLR sees the launch of GT-Prolog, a new implementation of the Prolog language widely used within industry and academia for the development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications and for symbolic programming generally. Although GT-Prolog isn’t the first Prolog system for the QL (that honour goes to Hans Lub’s QL Prolog, available from the Quanta library) it does seem that information on Prolog within the QL community is somewhat lacking. This article will attempt to redress that situation.
