Problem with copy_stream_data 1

First of all, the standard user input is the keyboard. The screen is the standard user output, but that's probably due to rushing

Ok, to read from a file or to write to a file, you need a file descriptor. You associate a file descriptor to a file when you open that file and all the subsequent file operations will be done using the file descriptor.


When you run print_to_file, it lets you type multiple atoms. You can finish with Ctrl-Z and then you can inspect the contents of your file (C:/mytext.txt in this case) - if you don't supply a full path, you have to be able to locate the file yourself depending of the user settings for your account.

Yeah... it's due to rushing...!

I tried your solution and it works perfectly. Thanks for your help.

Hi! I'd like to pose one more question...
i have this code that deletes a lesson from a knowledge base. Because there is a posiibility that information associated with the lesson may be stored elesewhere i want them gone too..
The problem is that although the code works and does remove the lesson from base.pl does not do the same thing with the associated information in explaination.pl and optional_courses.txt... Is there a reason for that??
I'm guessing it has something to do with variable Lesson... if so, how can i fix it? thanks in advance.

From my point of view there is no problem with the code above, however there could be some problems elsewhere, depending how you defined offerred_in and explain.

I didn't understand exactly how does the code run for you (because I made it run fine on my machine, with both base.pl and explaining.pl being modified properly):

- does it bring up some errors after step 1/3 completed? - in this case, see if you made both offerred_in and explain dynamic
- or it runs without errors only there are no modifications in explaining.pl? - in this case, there could be a more subtle error

By the way, your code writes in 'explaining.pl' and you said something about a file 'explaination.pl'. Is it possible that you have 2 files and you are expecting the wrong file to get updated after the code runs?

It seems that, indeed, the code works fine. The error was coming from elsewhere.. Thanks once again.

I am running a tool in prolog and after the running is finished i have the fllowing result:

but I only need to copy aprt from it. so how can I copy it from prolog to another text file.


thanks

I don't quite understand, you need your Prolog program to write in a text file instead of writing to the screen? If this is the case, it's difficult to answer without having the Prolog code that generates this text.

If you are running the program from command line, you can also leave the original Prolog code as it is and instead redirect output to a file, like this:

shell_command_that_produces_output_text > file.txt

Instead of printing to the screen, the shell command will write its output to file 'file.txt'
