Linas, please note the lower-case 'a' vs. 'A'.
The class 'atom' is in a namespace of reasoning or PTL or PLN, and
predates the whole of opencog code.
Regarding vtree, I don't have the time to explain it right now.
-A

Hi,
2008/11/1 Joel Pitt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
1. You've mentioned a couple of times that the atom class is obsolete.
Do vtrees now essentially fulfill all the tasks expected of the atom
class in PLN, such that it's just a matter of replacing atoms with
vtrees in most places (and maybe making a few changes to the methods
called etc.)...
I'm coming in very late to what must have been a long
discussion, but ... what is a vtree, and why would it replace
an "atom class"?
Perhaps I'm naive; currently, opencog has a class called
"Atom" that is a base class for Node and Link ...surely,
this is not going away?
I'm representing a broad variety of relationships using
Nodes and Links, does this "vtree" stuff affect me? Or
is this more about some internal representation used
only in the guts of PLN, and has no impact to outsiders?
