Basic Ideas
CycL has some basic ideas:
- Naming the constants used to refer to information for represented concepts.
- Grouping the constants together in a generalization/specialization hierarchy (usually called categorization).
- Stating general rules that support inference about the concepts.
- The truth or falsity of a CycL sentence is context-relative; these contexts are represented in CycL as Microtheories.
