Lambda Prolog

   <language> An extension of standard {Prolog} defined by Dale
   A. Miller and Gopalan Nadathur in 1986, in which terms are
   {strongly typed} lambda terms.  {Clauses} are {higher order}
   {hereditary Harrop formulas}.  The main novelties are
   {universal quantification} on {goals} and {implication}.

   The {Prolog/Mali} compiler compiles Lambda Prolog for the
   {MALI} abstract memory system.

   Teyjus (http://teyjus.cs.umn.edu/) is an implementation of
   Lambda Prolog.
