number_variables(+Handle, +L, +Group, -Terms)
Create a list of terms for a search routine, numbering the variables
- Handle
- a handle to an opaque data structure for the viualization
- L
- a list of variables to be assigned
- Group
- an integer, the group identifier
- Terms
- a variable, will be unified to a list of terms
Description
This predicate is used to number the variables before the search, so that the visualizer knows at each step which variable is currently assigned.
Examples
top(N,L):-
    length(L,N),
    L :: 1..N,
    alldifferent(L),
    create_visualization([],Handle),
    add_visualizer(Handle,vector(L),[group:1]),
    number_variables(Handle,1,L,Terms),
    root(Handle),
    search(Terms,1,first_fail,
           tree_indomain(Handle,_),complete,[]),
    solution(Handle),
    close_visualization(Handle).
