Getting help, asking questions, solving problems

There are several places you can get help or ask questions about SWI-Prolog or Prolog programming in general.

- The list of [[frequently asked questions][</FAQ/>]]

- [SWI-Prolog Discourse forum](https://swi-prolog.discourse.group)
(best place to get answered for SWI-Prolog specific questions)

- StackOverflow questions with these tags:
[swi-prolog](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/swi-prolog),
[prolog](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/prolog)
(best place for issues with class room exercises that are not
SWI-Prolog specific)

- The Prolog IRC channel ##prolog has moved to libera.chat (server irc.libera.chat)

- [SWI-Prolog issue tracker at GitHub](https://github.com/SWI-Prolog/issues/issues)
(See [reporting a bug](<bug.html>) for guidelines about reporting
 a bug)

It usually takes about one day for a volunteer to reply to your question. We appreciate your patience.
