JESS: Backward Chaining in JessHi,
we are examining the use of backward chaining with Jess and have come across a few point that we'd like to clarify. Specifically, it seems that function calls are not possible in a rules LHS, such as (deftemplate Bunny) (do-backward-chainning Bunny) (defrule print-carrot-cout2 ?app <- (Bunny (weight 11) {carrots > 15}) => (printout t "The carrot count is " ?app.carrots crlf) ) Here, the ">" causes a problem. So, at least in regards to operators, it seems that ==, !=, && are possible, whereas ||, <>, <=, >= don't work. Are we doing something drastically wrong, or is that a real restriction of Jess' backward chaining capabilities? Thanks for any input, Joerg Henschel -------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, send the words 'unsubscribe jess-users you@...' in the BODY of a message to majordomo@..., NOT to the list (use your own address!)

Re: JESS: Backward Chaining in JessNo, you're not doing anything wrong. Goal patterns in Jess's limited
backward-chaining implementation can't contain functions, just as the rule compiler should be reporting to you.
