Ok, Scryer Prolog calls it library(arithmetic).
I prefer library(math), since many other programming
languages have Math.random(). But if I remember
well Scryer Prolog has a separate library for
random numbers. The library(arithemtic) might
provide a popcount/2 predicate, but it doesn't
provide a popcount/2 evaluable function. I get this error:
?- ['gridn.p'].
error(type_error(evaluable,popcount/1),load/1).
Thats a pitty, one more obstacle in portable Prolog code.
P.S.: I know it is hard to make evaluable functions
definable in modules or Prolog text more general.
Especially since executing a Prolog defined evaluable
functions can be non-trivial in terms of stack etc..,
since evaluable functions just like unification etc..
might use other stacks, and therefore mixing with
the Prolog stack can lead to bad performance, because
of some impedence mismatch. But there is a nice compromise,
for native libraries it might be easier to register
a new evaluable function.
