This is an interface to allow calling Python from Prolog. Please look
at the YAP4PY SWIG package if you want to embedd Prolog with Python.

The interface should be activated by consulting the python library. It
immediately boots a Python image.

To best define the interface, one has to address two opposite goals:
    - make it as similar to python as possible
    - make all embedded language interfaces (python, R, Java) as
similar as possible.

   YAP supports the following translation between Prolog and Python:

| *Prolog*      | *Pyhon*       |          *Prolog Examples*             |
|:-------------:|:-------------:|---------------------------------------:|
| Numbers       | Numbers       | 2.3
|               |               | 1545
|               |               |
| Atom          | Symbols       | var
| $Atom         |               | $var [ = var]
| `string`      | 'string'      | \`hello\`
| "string"      |        '      | "hello"
|               |               |
| Atom(...)     | Symb(...)     | f( a, b, named=v)
| E.F(...)      | E.F (...)     | mod.f( a) [ = [mod\|f(a)] ]
| Atom()        |               | f() [ = '()'(f) ]
| Lists         | Lists         | [1,2,3]
| t(....)       | Tuples        | t(1,2,3) to (1,2,3)
| (..., ...)    |               | (1,2,3)[ = (1,(2,3))]
| {.=., .=.}    | Dict          | {\`one\`: 1, \`two\`: 2, \`three\`: 3}
