KRL (programming language)

KRL is a knowledge representation language, developed by Daniel G. Bobrow and Terry Winograd while at Xerox PARC and Stanford University, respectively. It is a frame-based language.

KRL was an attempt to produce a language which was nice to read and write for the engineers who had to write programs in it, processed like human memory, so you could have realistic AI programs, had an underlying semantics which was firmly grounded like logic languages, all in one, all in one language. And I think it - again, in hindsight - it just bogged down under the weight of trying to satisfy all those things at once. [1]

Not to be confused with Kinetic Rule Language or KUKA Robot Language.

gollark: I'm probably going to rewrite Wyvern yet again to communicate with a non-CC server to simplify item handling and make setup even more annoying.
gollark: The madman behind it (@Incin or something) made a HTML/CSS parser/renderer or something and made the shop use it.
gollark: I prefer Xenon. It's more flexible though configuration is harder.
gollark: You should not work on a shop if you need someone to explain the docs to you and write the code for you.
gollark: That is what I *said*.
