    <p>If Prolog has clear distinction between strings, numbers, atoms, lists and compound structures how can it be called untyped. And how does it differ from dynamically typed languages like Lisp for example.</p> <p>Which part of the definition of "dynamically typed language" does Prolog conflict with? And which part of the definition of "untyped language" does Lisp conflict with?</p> <p>Any insight is appreciated.</p> <p><strong>Update</strong></p> <p>I already know what's the difference between dynamic, static, strong and weak typing. My question is about a special case which is Prolog. I just want to understand how is Prolog considered to be untyped though it doesn't seem to have a clear difference from dynamically typed languages.</p> <p>Here's <em>a</em> reference that Prolog is untyped <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prolog#Types" rel="noreferrer">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prolog#Types</a></p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
