<A NAME="Introduction:(Dynamic-clause-management)"></A>
<B>Static and dynamic procedures</B>: a procedure is either dynamic or
static. All built-in predicates are static. A user-defined procedure is
static by default unless a <TT>dynamic/1</TT> directive precedes its
definition (section <A HREF="manual021.html#dynamic/1">6.1.2</A>). Adding a clause to a non-existent procedure
creates a dynamic procedure. The clauses of a dynamic procedure can be
altered (e.g. using <TT>asserta/1</TT>), the clauses of a static procedure
cannot be altered. <BR>
<BR>
<B>Private and public procedures</B>: each procedure is either public or
private. A dynamic procedure is always public. Each built-in predicate is
private, and a static user-defined procedure is private by default unless a
<TT>public/1</TT> directive precedes its definition (section <A HREF="manual021.html#public/1">6.1.3</A>). If a
dynamic declaration exists it is unnecessary to add a public declaration
since a dynamic procedure is also public. A clause of a public procedure can
be inspected (e.g. using <TT>clause/2</TT>), a clause of a private procedure
cannot be inspected.<BR>
<BR>
<B>A logical database update view</B>: any change in the database that
occurs as the result of executing a goal (e.g. when a sub-goal is a call of
<TT>assertz/1</TT> or <TT>retract/1</TT>) only affects subsequent
activations. The change does not affect any activation that is currently
being executed. Thus the database is frozen during the execution of a goal,
and the list of clauses defining a predication is fixed at the moment of its
execution.<BR>

<TT>asserta(Clause)</TT> first converts the term <TT>Clause</TT> to a clause
and then adds it to the current internal database. The predicate concerned
must be dynamic (section <A HREF="#Introduction:(Dynamic-clause-management)">7.7.1</A>) or
undefined and the clause is inserted before the first clause of the
predicate. If the predicated is undefined it is created as a dynamic
procedure.<BR>
<BR>
<TT>assertz(Clause)</TT> acts like <TT>asserta/1</TT> except that the clause
is added at the end of all existing clauses of the concerned predicate.<BR>
