Comment on Nondeterministic programmingparent

Comments

The article mentions that it's related, but somewhat simpler because it's "only" backtracking, versus Prolog's full logic programming:

The embedding recalls the continuation strategies used to implement Prolog-style logic programming, but is sparer because the operator provided is much like a Scheme boolean operator, does not require special contexts for its use, and does not rely on linguistic infrastructure such as logic variables and unification.
