Passing Data to and from Prolog, the foreign function interface automatically converts between C's representation of data and the representation of atomic data types expected by Prolog. Thus the calling function does not need to know how Prolog represents atoms, integers, floats or addresses in order to communicate with Prolog. This feature simplifies the integration of Prolog with foreign code; in particular, it makes it easier to interface directly with already-written functions in libraries and other programs.
