99 Bottles of Beer done in Prolog-languages

Prolog

Works with: SWI Prolog
bottles(0).
bottles(X):-
    writef('%t bottles of beer on the wall \n',[X]),
    writef('%t bottles of beer\n',[X]),
    write('Take one down, pass it around\n'),
    succ(XN,X),
    writef('%t bottles of beer on the wall \n\n',[XN]),
    bottles(XN).

:- bottles(99).

It is possible to extend the previous version so to handle singular and plurals of the word 'bottle':

bottles(0):- write('no more bottles of beer').
bottles(B) :-
    dif(B,0), NewB is B - 1,
    (
        dif(B,1), writef('%t bottles of beer on the wall \n',[B]), writef('%t bottles of beer\n',[B]);
        writef('%t bottle of beer on the wall \n',[B]), writef('%t bottle of beer\n',[B])
    ),
    write('Take one down, pass it around\n'),
    (
        NewB > 1, writef('%t bottles of beer on the wall \n\n',[NewB]);
        NewB =:= 1, writef('%t bottle of beer on the wall \n\n',[NewB]); 
        true
    ), 
    bottles(NewB).

:- bottles(99).

Another version that handles plural/not plural conditions.

line1(X):- line2(X),write(' on the wall'). 
line2(0):- write('no more bottles of beer').
line2(1):- write('1 bottle of beer').
line2(X):- writef('%t bottles of beer',[X]).
line3(1):- write('Take it down, pass it around').
line3(X):- write('Take one down, pass it around').
line4(X):- line1(X).
 
bottles(0):-!.
bottles(X):-	
    succ(XN,X),
    line1(X),nl,
    line2(X),nl,
    line3(X),nl,
    line4(XN),nl,nl,
    !,
    bottles(XN).
 
:- bottles(99).
