swi-prolog

hey guys, am a bit of a newbie in Prolog. And am going thru this tutorial on line and it is telling me i can load other prolog files by typing:

[filename].

but ever time I try this am getting

ERROR: load_files/2: Arguments are not sufficiently instantiated.

What am i doing wrong?

P.S. the file is in the same directory as the one am working in.

and here is a copy of the entire query and error.

12 ?- [KB5].

ERROR: load_files/2: Arguments are not sufficiently instantiated

So I was wondering… >>> More

SWI-Prolog tokenize_atom/2 replacement?

as seen on Stack Overflow - Search for 'Stack Overflow'
What I need to do is to break atom to tokens. E. g.: tokenize_string('Hello, World!', L). would unify L=['Hello',',','World','!']. Exactly as tokenize_atom/2 do. But when I try to use tokenize_atom/2 with non-latin letters it fails. Is there any universal replacement or how I can write one? Thanks… >>> More
