1.
Consider the following Prolog facts and rules:
member (X, (X|_]).
member (X, [_T]) :- member (X, T).
subset ((), _).
subset([HT], S) :- member (H, S), subset (T, S).
(a)
(b)
Draw the Prolog tree corresponding to the following query:
?- subset([a,b], [a,b,a]).
true ;
true ;
false.
There are 7 possible places to insert a single cut (!) in the set of axioms, marked below
by [1]-[7]:
member (X, (✗|_]) :- ![1].
member (X, [_[T]) :- ![2], member (X, T), ! [3].
subset ((), ) :- ! [4].
subset([HT], S) :- ![5], member(H, S), ! [6], subset (T, S), ! [7] .
Which of these cuts are causing a unique solution as shown below? (You are using a single
cut at a time.)
? subset1 ([a,b], [a,b,a]).
true.
Explain the role of each cut by showing what parts of the tree it removes.
