/** @pred  if(? _G_,? _H_,? _I_)

Call goal  _H_ once per each solution of goal  _H_. If goal
 _H_ has no solutions, call goal  _I_.

The built-in `if/3` is similar to `->/3`, with the difference
that it will backtrack over the test goal. Consider the following
small data-base:

~~~~~{.prolog}
a(1).        b(a).          c(x).
a(2).        b(b).          c(y).

Execution of an `if/3` query will proceed as follows:

~~~~~{.prolog}
   ?- if(a(X),b(Y),c(Z)).

X = 1,
Y = a ? ;

X = 1,
Y = b ? ;

X = 2,
Y = a ? ;

X = 2,
Y = b ? ;

no
~~~~~

The system will backtrack over the two solutions for `a/1` and the
two solutions for `b/1`, generating four solutions.

Cuts are allowed inside the first goal  _G_, but they will only prune
over  _G_.

If you want  _G_ to be deterministic you should use if-then-else, as
it is both more efficient and more portable.

/** @pred setup_call_cleanup(: _Setup_,: _Goal_, : _CleanUpGoal_) 


Calls `(Setup, Goal)`. For each sucessful execution of  _Setup_, calling  _Goal_, the
cleanup handler  _Cleanup_ is guaranteed to be called exactly once.
This will happen after  _Goal_ completes, either through failure,
deterministic success, commit, or an exception.   _Setup_ will
contain the goals that need to be protected from asynchronous interrupts
such as the ones received from `call_with_time_limit/2` or thread_signal/2.  In
most uses,  _Setup_ will perform temporary side-effects required by
 _Goal_ that are finally undone by  _Cleanup_.

Success or failure of  _Cleanup_ is ignored and choice-points it
created are destroyed (as once/1). If  _Cleanup_ throws an exception,
this is executed as normal.

Typically, this predicate is used to cleanup permanent data storage
required to execute  _Goal_, close file-descriptors, etc. The example
below provides a non-deterministic search for a term in a file, closing
the stream as needed.

~~~~~{.prolog}
term_in_file(Term, File) :-
    setup_call_cleanup(open(File, read, In),
               term_in_stream(Term, In),
               close(In) ).

term_in_stream(Term, In) :-
    repeat,
    read(In, T),
    (   T == end_of_file
    ->  !, fail
    ;   T = Term
    ).
~~~~~

Note that it is impossible to implement this predicate in Prolog other than
by reading all terms into a list, close the file and call member/2.
Without setup_call_cleanup/3 there is no way to gain control if the
choice-point left by `repeat` is removed by a cut or an exception.

`setup_call_cleanup/2` can also be used to test determinism of a goal:

~~~~~
?- setup_call_cleanup(true,(X=1;X=2), Det=yes).

X = 1 ;

X = 2,
Det = yes ;
~~~~~

This predicate is under consideration for inclusion into the ISO standard.
For compatibility with other Prolog implementations see `call_cleanup/2`.
