N-Prolog version 3.1

N-Prolog Ver3.1 Release Notes
Release Date: [9/8/2024]

We are pleased to announce the release of N-Prolog Ver3.1. This version includes significant updates, focusing on numerical calculation improvements, enhanced compatibility with ARITY/PROLOG, and compiler enhancements. Please refer to the details below.
Major Changes

Streamlined Numerical Calculation Functions
Numerical calculation functions have been simplified and organized to align with Prolog's characteristics. Unnecessary functions and conflicting names have been resolved, providing a more lightweight and intuitive experience.

Function Deprecation
The following numerical calculation functions have been deprecated:
gcd (Greatest Common Divisor) ,truncate, ... etc
This allows users to define these names as predicates freely, making it easier to create custom predicates.

Renaming of Numerical Functions
The log function has been redefined as the common logarithm (base 10).
A new ln function has been introduced for calculating the natural logarithm (base e).
These changes maintain compatibility with ARITY/PROLOG, ensuring a familiar experience for existing users.

Enhanced Compatibility with ARITY/PROLOG
Compatibility with ARITY/PROLOG has been further strengthened, ensuring that specific features and operations align with those systems. This makes transitioning to N-Prolog smoother for ARITY/PROLOG users.

Name Collision Resolution
Issues with name collisions between numerical calculation functions and predicates have been resolved. Users can now define predicates without worrying about conflicts.

Compiler Enhancements

Link Index Management with Enum Type
The compiler has been improved to better manage the index for linking object files. Previously, link numbers were hardcoded as numeric values, but from this version onward, enum types are used to manage link numbers by name. This enhancement significantly improves code readability and maintainability.

Future Plans

While this release focuses on numerical calculations and compatibility issues, future versions will include additional features and improvements. We welcome your continued feedback.
Installation

The latest version is available for download from the official website. For installation instructions, please refer to the README.

N-Prolog ver2.5 Pre-Release Notes
This release introduces several new features and improvements to N-Prolog, enhancing its usability and performance. Below are the key updates in N-Prolog ver2.5.

New Features
Introduction of Edlog CUI Editor
We have integrated Edlog, a CUI (Character User Interface) editor dedicated to N-Prolog. Edlog is optimized for editing Prolog code and provides an efficient development environment. It offers a lightweight and straightforward interface, enabling users to write and edit Prolog programs comfortably within a CUI environment.
Improvements
Enhanced REPL
The REPL (Read-Eval-Print Loop) of N-Prolog has been improved to facilitate smoother interactive sessions. The responsiveness of the REPL has been increased, and error messages and outputs are now displayed in a more organized and user-friendly manner.

Bug Fixes
Several bugs reported in previous versions have been addressed in this release. These fixes improve the stability of N-Prolog, making it more reliable in various use cases.

Future Plans
This version is a pre-release, and we plan to continue refining the system based on user feedback. Further optimizations of Edlog and enhancements to the Prolog engine itself are among the areas we will focus on.

Download and Feedback
The pre-release version of N-Prolog ver2.5 is available for download via the github. We welcome your feedback. Please feel free to report bugs or provide suggestions to help us improve the system.
