Abstract. In the usual framework of abstract types programming languages inciuding a definition mechanism for partial recursive functions cannot be specified sufficiently complete because of the termination problem. Therefore the algebraic concepts of abstract types The unification of logic and functional programming, like the Holy Grail, is sought by countless people [6, 14]. In reporting our attempt, we first discuss the motivation. We argue that logic programming is still immature, compared with functional programming, because
