{{FormulaeEntry|page=https://formulae.org/?script=examples/Catalan_numbers}}
Fōrmulæ programs are not textual, visualization/edition of programs is done showing/manipulating structures but not text. Moreover, there can be multiple visual representations of the same program. Even though it is possible to have textual representation &mdash;i.e. XML, JSON&mdash; they are intended for storage and transfer purposes more than visualization and edition.
 
'''Solution'''
Programs in Fōrmulæ are created/edited online in its [https://formulae.org website], However they run on execution servers. By default remote servers are used, but they are limited in memory and processing power, since they are intended for demonstration and casual use. A local server can be downloaded and installed, it has no limitations (it runs in your own computer). Because of that, example programs can be fully visualized and edited, but some of them will not run if they require a moderate or heavy computation/memory resources, and no local server is being used.
 
'''Direct definition'''
 
[[File:Fōrmulæ - Catalan numbers 01.png]]
 
[[File:Fōrmulæ - Catalan numbers 02.png]]
 
'''Direct definition (alternative)'''
 
The expression <math>\frac{(2n)!}{(n+1)!\,n!}</math> turns out to be equals to <math>\prod_{k=2}^{n}\frac{n + k}{k}</math>
 
[[File:Fōrmulæ - Catalan numbers 03.png]]
 
(same result)
 
'''No directly defined'''
 
Recursive definitions are easy to write, but extremely inefficient (specially the first one).
 
Because a list is intended to be get, the list of previous values can be used as a form of memoization, avoiding recursion.
 
The next function make use of the "second" form of recursive definition (without recursion):

=={{header|Logtalk}}==
 
For this task it is instructive to show a more general-purpose interface for sequences and an implementation of it for Catalan numbers.
 
First, <code>loader.lgt</code>:
 
<syntaxhighlight lang="logtalk">
:- initialization((
% libraries
logtalk_load(dates(loader)),
logtalk_load(meta(loader)),
logtalk_load(types(loader)),
% application
logtalk_load(seqp),
logtalk_load(catalan),
logtalk_load(catalan_test)
)).
</syntaxhighlight>
 
The interface is defined in <code>seqp.lgt</code> as a protocol:
 
<syntaxhighlight lang="logtalk">
:- protocol(seqp).
 
:- public(init/0). % reset to a beginning state if meaningful
 
:- public(nth/2). % get the nth value of the sequence
 
:- public(to_nth/2). % get from the start to the nth value of the sequence as a list
 
:- end_protocol.
</syntaxhighlight>
 
The implementation of a Catalan sequence generator is in <code>catalan.lgt</code>:
 
<syntaxhighlight lang="logtalk">
:- object(catalan, implements(seqp)).
 
:- private(catalan/2).
:- dynamic(catalan/2).
 
% Public interface.
 
init :- retractall(catalan(_,_)). % flush any memoized results
 
nth(N, V) :- \+ catalan(N, V), catalan_(N, V), !. % generate iff it's not been memoized
nth(N, V) :- catalan(N, V), !. % otherwise use the memoized version
 
to_nth(N, L) :-
integer::sequence(0, N, S), % generate a list of 0 to N
meta::map(nth, S, L). % map the nth/2 predicate to the list for all Catalan numbers up to N
 
% Local helper predicates.
 
catalan_(N, V) :-
N > 0, % calculate
N1 is N - 1,
N2 is N + 1,
catalan_(N1, V1), % via a recursive call
V is V1 * 2 * (2 * N - 1) // N2,
assertz(catalan(N, V)). % and memoize the result
catalan_(0, 1).
 
:- end_object.
</syntaxhighlight>
 
This is a memoizing implementation whose impact we will check in the test. The <code>init/0</code> predicate flushes any memoized results.
 
The test driver is a simple one that generates the first fifteen Catalan numbers four times, comparing times with and without memoization. From <code>catalan_test.lgt</code>:
 
<syntaxhighlight lang="logtalk">
:- object(catalan_test).
 
:- public(run/0).
 
run :-
% put the object into a known initial state
catalan::init,
 
% first 15 Catalan numbers, record duration.
time_operation(catalan::to_nth(15, C1), D1),
 
% first 15 Catalan numbers again, twice, recording duration.
time_operation(catalan::to_nth(15, C2), D2),
time_operation(catalan::to_nth(15, C3), D3),
 
% reset the object again
catalan::init,
 
% first 15 Catalan numbers, record duration.
time_operation(catalan::to_nth(15, C4), D4),
 
% ensure the results were the same each time
C1 = C2, C2 = C3, C3 = C4,
 
% write the results and durations of each run
write(C1), write(' '), write(D1), nl,
write(C2), write(' '), write(D2), nl,
write(C3), write(' '), write(D3), nl,
write(C4), write(' '), write(D4), nl.
% visual inspection should show all results the same
% first and final durations should be much larger
 
:- meta_predicate(time_operation(0, *)).
 
time_operation(Goal, Duration) :-
time::cpu_time(Before),
call(Goal),
time::cpu_time(After),
Duration is After - Before.
 
:- end_object.

This test shows:
 
# The <code>nth/2</code> predicate works (since <code>to_nth/2</code> is implemented in terms of it).
# The <code>to_nth/2</code> predicate works.
# Memoization generates a speedup of between ~4.5× to ~6.2× over generating from scratch.
