Throughout this chapter, the prompts clp(q) ?- and clp(r) ?-
are used to differentiate between clp(Q) and clp(R) in exemplary interactions.
In general there are many ways to express the same linear relationship. This degree of freedom is manifest in the fact that the printed manual and an actual interaction with the current version of clp(Q,R) may show syntactically different answer constraints, despite the fact the same semantic relationship is being expressed. There are means to control the presentation; see Variable Ordering. The approximative nature of floating point numbers may also produce numerical differences between the text in this manual and the actual results of clp(R), for a given edition of the software.
