/** @pred   :_P_ ; :_Q_  is iso
Disjunction of goals (or).

Example:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 p(X) :- q(X); r(X).
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
should be read as "p( _X_) if q( _X_) or r( _X_)".


*/

/** @pred  \+ :_P_  is iso
Negation by failure.

Goal  _P_ is not provable. The execution of this predicate fails if
and only if the goal  _P_ finitely succeeds. It is not a true logical
negation, which is impossible in standard Prolog, but
"negation-by-failure".

This predicate might be defined as:

~~~~~~~~~~~~
 \+(P) :- P, !, fail.
 \+(_).
~~~~~~~~~~~~
if  _P_ did not include "cuts".

If _P_ includes cuts, the cuts are defined to be scoped by _P_: they canno cut over the calling prredicate.

 ~~~~~~~~~~~~
  go(P).
          :- \+ P, !, fail.
  \+(_).
 ~~~~~~~~~~~~

*/


/** @pred  not :_P_


Goal  _P_ is not provable. The same as `\+  _P_`.

This predicate is kept for compatibility with C-Prolog and previous
versions of YAP. Uses of not/1 should be replaced by
`\+`/1, as YAP does not implement true negation.


*/



/** @pred   :_Condition__ -> :_Action_  is iso


Read as "if-then-else" or "commit". This operator is similar to the
conditional operator of imperative languages and can be used alone or
with an else part as follows:


~~~~~
    +P -> +Q
~~~~~

"if P then Q".


~~~~~
  +P -> +Q; +R
~~~~~

"if P then Q else R".

These two predicates could be defined respectively in Prolog as:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 (P -> Q) :- P, !, Q.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
and

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 (P -> Q; R) :- P, !, Q.
 (P -> Q; R) :- R.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
if there were no "cuts" in  _P_,  _Q_ and  _R_.

Note that the commit operator works by "cutting" any alternative
solutions of  _P_.

Note also that you can use chains of commit operators like:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    P -> Q ; R -> S ; T.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Note that `(->)/2` does not affect the scope of cuts in its
arguments.


*/

/** @pred    :_Condition_ *-> :_Action_ is iso

This construct implements the so-called <em>soft-cut</em>. The control is
defined as follows:
  + If  _Condition_ succeeds at least once, the
semantics is the same as ( _Condition_,  _Action_).

  + If
 _Condition_ does not succeed, the semantics is that of (\\+
 _Condition_,  _Else_).

 In other words, if  _Condition_
succeeds at least once, simply behave as the conjunction of
 _Condition_ and  _Action_, otherwise execute  _Else_.

The construct  _A *-> B_, i.e. without an  _Else_ branch, is
translated as the normal conjunction  _A_,  _B_.


*/

/** @pred  ! is iso


Read as "cut". Cuts any choices taken in the current procedure.
When first found "cut" succeeds as a goal, but if backtracking should
later return to it, the parent goal (the one which matches the head of
the clause containing the "cut", causing the clause activation) will
fail. This is an extra-logical predicate and cannot be explained in
terms of the declarative semantics of Prolog.

example:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 member(X,[X|_]).
 member(X,[_|L]) :- member(X,L).
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

With the above definition

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 ?- member(X,[1,2,3]).
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

will return each element of the list by backtracking. With the following
definition:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 member(X,[X|_]) :- !.
 member(X,[_|L]) :- member(X,L).
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

the same query would return only the first element of the
list, since backtracking could not "pass through" the cut.

/** @pred  repeat is iso
Succeeds repeatedly.

In the next example, `repeat` is used as an efficient way to implement
a loop. The next example reads all terms in a file:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.prolog}
 a :- repeat, read(X), write(X), nl, X=end_of_file, !.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
the loop is effectively terminated by the cut-goal, when the test-goal
`X=end` succeeds. While the test fails, the goals `read(X)`,
`write(X)`, and `nl` are executed repeatedly, because
backtracking is caught by the `repeat` goal.

The built-in `repeat/0` could be defined in Prolog by:

~~~~~{.prolog}
 repeat.
 repeat :- repeat.
~~~~~

The predicate between/3 can be used to iterate for a pre-defined
number of steps.

term read when consulting a file and before asserting or executing it.
It rewrites a term  _T_ to a term  _X_ according to the following
rules: first try term_expansion/2  in the current module, and then try to use the user defined predicate
`user:term_expansion/2`. If this call fails then the translating process
for DCG rules is applied, together with the arithmetic optimizer
whenever the compilation of arithmetic expressions is in progress.

/** @pred  catch( : _Goal_,+ _Exception_,+ _Action_) is iso


The goal `catch( _Goal_, _Exception_, _Action_)` tries to
execute goal  _Goal_. If during its execution,  _Goal_ throws an
exception  _E'_ and this exception unifies with  _Exception_, the
exception is considered to be caught and  _Action_ is executed. If
the exception  _E'_ does not unify with  _Exception_, control
again throws the exception.

The top-level of YAP maintains a default exception handler that
is responsible to capture uncaught exceptions.
