An integrated knowledge-based development tool using the C language

Many tasks that programmers need to implement may be solved using conventional computing techniques. More complex tasks, however, do not conform as nicely to such techniques. EX-C is an extended programming environment the authors have developed around the C programming language. EX-C provides a fully integrated development environment for conventional and AI programming. The authors discuss the techniques used in EX-C and provide an example of its use in the development of a knowledge-based system for farm management
