How can I use naive evaluation and semi-naive evaluation work for this Prolog program?
Can you tell me how naive evaluation and semi-naive evaluation work for a Prolog program?
Certainly. Naive evaluation is a simple method for evaluating Prolog programs. It works by attempting to satisfy the goal provided by the user, and searching through the database of facts and rules to determine if the goal can be satisfied. If a rule is found that can be applied to the goal, the rule's body is recursively evaluated. Semi-naive evaluation, on the other hand, is an optimization technique that takes advantage of the assumption that new facts will only be derived from newly added clauses.
