% solver - a simple meta-interpreter for pure Prolog:

| ?- solver::assertz(member_of(H, [H| _])).

H = _G178 
yes

| ?- solver::assertz((member_of(H, [_| T]) :- member_of(H, T))).

H = _G181
T = _G179 
yes

| ?- solver::solve(member_of(2, [1,2,3])).

yes

| ?- solver::solve(member_of(X, [1,2,3])).

X = 1 ;
X = 2 ;
X = 3
yes


% proof_tree - a simple meta-interpreter for pure Prolog that 
% construct a proof tree:

| ?- proof_tree::assertz(member_of(H, [H| _])).

H = _G178 
yes

| ?- proof_tree::assertz((member_of(H, [_| T]) :- member_of(H, T))).
