A definite clause grammar DCG is a way of expressing grammar, either for Natural language natural or Formal language formal languages, in a logic programming language such as Prolog . DCGs are usually associated with Prolog, but similar languages such as Mercury programming language Mercury also include DCGs. They are called definite clause grammars because they represent a grammar as a set of definite clause s in first order logic . The term DCG refers to the specific type of expression in Prolog and other similar languages not all ways of expressing grammars using definite clauses are considered DCGs. However, all of the capabilities or properties of DCGs will be the same for any grammar that is represented with definite clauses in essentially the same way as in Prolog. The definite clauses of a DCG can be considered a set of axioms where the validity of a sentence, and the fact that it has a certain parse tree can be considered theorems that follow from these axioms ref Cite journal ...

The idea for this event was thought up by a group of students for an assignment for two of their lecturers. they came up with the idea to run a guided walking tour through the streets of Temple Bar to demonstrate Dublin s street culture. This included buskers, performers and graffiti artwork. The tour was started in order to celebrate a side to Dublin that is lesser known to tourists, and even some locals, in contrast to the more mainstream attractions that Dublin city offers.
