Class Term

Term is the base for .NET representations of Prolog terms.

Field Summary
string	name

Property Summary
int	Arity Returns the number of arguments of this compound term or 0 if this term is not a compound term.
bool	Atom Returns true if this term is an atom and false otherwise.
bool	Atomic Returns true if this term is a constant (e.g. integer, floating-point number, or atom) and false if this term is a compound term or variable.
bool	Compound Returns true if this term is a compund term and false otherwise.
bool	Float Returns true if this term is a floating-point number and false otherwise.
bool	Integer Returns true if this term is an integer and false otherwise.
bool	IsString Returns true if this term is an instance of PBString (which can be used for fast string access) and false otherwise.
bool	List Returns true if this term is a list and false otherwise.
string	Name Returns the name of this constant or compound term.
bool	Variable Returns true if this term is a variable and false otherwise.

Method Summary
double	doubleValue() Returns the floating-point value of this term. if this term is not a number
float	floatValue() Returns the floating-point value of this term. if this term is not a number
se.sics.prologbeans.Term	getArgument(int index) Returns the argument at the specified index. Only compound terms have arguments. Note: the arguments are indexed from 1 to arity.
int	intValue() Returns the integer value of this term. if this term is not an integer
long	longValue() Returns the integer value of this term. if this term is not an integer
string	stuffAtom(string atom)
string	ToString() Returns a string description of this term.

public int Arity

Returns the number of arguments of this compound term or 0 if this term is not a compound term.

Atom

public bool Atom

Returns true if this term is an atom and false otherwise.

Atomic

public bool Atomic

Returns true if this term is a constant (e.g. integer, floating-point number, or atom) and false if this term is a compound term or variable.

Compound

public bool Compound

Returns true if this term is a compund term and false otherwise.

Float

public bool Float

Returns true if this term is a floating-point number and false otherwise.

Integer

public bool Integer

Returns true if this term is an integer and false otherwise.

IsString
