Trilogy with numerical {constraint}-solving over the {natural numbers}, developed by Paul Voda at {UBC} in 1988. Trilogy is syntactically a blend of {Prolog}, {Lisp}, and {Pascal}. It contains three types of {clauses}: {predicates} ({backtracking} but no assignable variables), procedures (if-then-else but no backtracking; assignable variables), and {subroutines} (like procedures, but with input and {system calls}; callable only from top level or from other subroutines). Development of Trilogy I stopped in 1991. Trilogy II, developed by Paul Voda 1988-92, was a {declarative} general purpose programming language, used for teaching and to write {CL}. {(http://www.fmph.uniba.sk/~voda)}.
