Reading list

The reading list comprises the parts of the textbook and the slides we have reviewed during the course. As a general rule, all the Prolog code is excluded from the reading list. The slides more or less summarize the textbook. They are available here: https://github.com/pnugues/ilppp/tree/master/slides I used the second edition of the textbook, Language Processing with Perl and Prolog.
