DLV-Complex is an Answer Set Programming System extending [http://www.dlvsystem.com DLV] by means of functions. It is a very powerful ASP system supporting (recursive) functions, sets, and lists, along with libraries for their manipulations.

DLV-Complex is based on the [http://www.dlvsystem.com DLV] system and on the [http://www.mat.unical.it/ianni/wiki/dlvex DLV-EX] framework, from which it inherits the possibility of
defining ''external predicates''. If will find everything you need in order to create your own external predicates collected in libraries on the [http://www.mat.unical.it/ianni/wiki/dlvex DLV-EX] page.

=== Static Version ===
We offer also a statically linked executable (currently only linux and windows versions), that includes list and set manipulation libraries. This version do not need any pre-installed dynamic library on your system; in addition, it is self-contained, meaning that '''you do not need to download any library''' (such as those below) '''in order to enjoy full lists and set support'''. It is '''ready-to-use'''. :) Nevertheless, this version '''do not support external predicates/libraries''' (see [[http://www.mat.unical.it/ianni/wiki/dlvex|DLV-EX]] page).
