Want to print the path which i have followed in going from one point to another.But getting errors.For examples, i want:
goal
solve(a,c,P).
Answer:P=[a,b,c]
I don't get what your solve predicate does. Here is my guess about how it should be :
solve(Start, End, [Start|PathMinusStart]) :-
solve_(Start, End, PathMinusStart).
solve_(Start, End, [End]) :-
path(Start, End).
solve_(Start, End, [Waypoint|Path]) :-
path(Start, Waypoint),
solve_(Waypoint, End, Path).
solve will give you the paths one after another using the ;
to browse them (well, I guess at least since I don't know anything about the prolog implementation you're using).
search_path(Node, End, Temp, Path) :- path(Node,End),reverse([End | [Node | Temp]], Path).
search_path(Node, End, Temp, Path) :-
path(Node, Next),
not(member(Node, Temp)),
search_path(Next, End, [Node | Temp], Path).
solve(Start, End, Path) :- search_path(Start, End, [], Path).
