CONT

A constraint language is a programming environment that simulates the behavior of a complex system described by the programmer as a set of relations, or constraints, on a set of variables. It is convenient to think of the constraint language as an interpreter, managing this system of constraints and variables.

CONT

The first constraint-based programming language was Sutherland's remarkable program, Sketchpad ... Among other innovations, Sketchpad introduced the idea of describing a computer program as a connected network of constraints.

OBS

Unlike programs in procedural programming languages ... that consist of a sequence of operations to be performed, a constraint language program defines a system of relations without determining a priori the sequence of computation and direction of data flow.
