#::(?Vars, ?Range, ?Bool)
Reified range constraint combined with integrality constraint
- Vars
- Variable or integer, or a list of variables or integers
- Range
- Variable or Lo..Hi, where Lo and Hi are variables or integer expressions
- Bool
- Variable, 0 or 1
Description
Reified version of #::/2, i.e. the truth value of the range constraint is
reflected in the value of the 0/1 variable Bool.
This constraint suspends until its first two arguments are ground.
It then unifies Bool according to the truth value of the corresponding
#::/2 constraint.
Note: as opposed to #::/2, the first argument cannot be a list.
Modules
This predicate is sensitive to its module context (tool predicate, see @/2).
Exceptions
- (5) type error
- Range contains non-integers.
Examples
?- #::(X, 1 .. 5, B), X = 3.
B = 1
X = 3
Yes (0.00s cpu)
% range violated
?- #::(X, 1 .. 5, B), X = 6.
B = 0
X = 6
Yes (0.00s cpu)
% integrality violated
?- #::(X, 1 .. 5, B), X = 3.0.
B = 0
X = 3.0
Yes (0.00s cpu)
