I guess some people just like to do things the hard way?
Reminds me of the HP-41C http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HP-41C But still the Haskell people have for example even put more into operators, than Prolog did. You can write things like: (+ 4) Or x $ y z Right? I guess the current lack of a concept of lambda expressions in Prolog is the cause. Bye
