RE: Vocabulary for RDF Query Test Cases

I understand the remarks and am quite biased
by experiments using proof stuff...
(will try to run different variants... when?)

Jos,

While N3 formulae could be used, I wanted a vocabulary that is just RDF.  I
quoted variables by using a property to their name.

One thing formulae would be good for would be the form of query results
which were a sequence of matching subgraphs:

(
  {:rec010 :year 2001;
           :month "May";
           :city "Tel Aviv"
           :film "Pokemon 2";
           :cinema "Globus". }

  { :rec017 :year 2001;
            :month "May";
            :city "Jerusalem";
            :cinema "Globus";
            :film "A Hard Day's Night". }
)

The other thought that occurred to me, from you example, is just to have:

{ ?r = :rec010. ?f = "Pokemon 2". ?c = "Tel Aviv" . } =>
           { :rec010 :year 2001;
                :month "May";
                :city "Tel Aviv"
                :film "Pokemon 2";
                :cinema "Globus". }


           Andy

Looks like good progress!
(sorry I missed the IRC meeting but I had no free time)

In http://www.w3.org/2003/03/rdfqr-tests/recording-query-results.html
reification is mentioned which is indeed maybe
*not* the way to go...
On the other hand I very much like the N3
way of writing subgraphs using {} notation.
For instance given the facts in
http://www.agfa.com/w3c/euler/ziv.n3
we can query those facts with
http://www.agfa.com/w3c/euler/ziv-query.n3
and that is then resulting in
http://www.agfa.com/w3c/euler/ziv-result.n3

so the query looks like

?r :year 2001;
   :month "May";
   :city ?c;
   :film ?f;
   :cinema "Globus".

and a particular result looks like

{?r = :rec010. ?r :year 2001} => {:rec010 :year 2001}.
{?r = :rec010. ?r :month "May"} => {:rec010 :month "May"}.
{?r = :rec010. ?c = "Tel Aviv". ?r :city ?c} => {:rec010 :city "Tel Aviv"}.
{?r = :rec010. ?f = "Pokemon 2". ?r :film ?f} => {:rec010 :film "Pokemon
2"}.
{?r = :rec010. ?r :cinema "Globus"} => {:rec010 :cinema "Globus"}.

but that can be further improved
(just wanted to show the braces)

PS I also had a look to Andy's Joseki and like/follow
   it's very nifty combination of HTTP and N3 Triples
