I have have been stuck on this

in prolog

Design a set of predicates that encode genealogical relationships..

male((XX)) - X is male..

female((XX)) - X is female..

parent((XX,,YY)) - X is the parent of Y..

mother((XX,,YY)) - X is the mother of Y..

father((XX,,YY)) - X is the father of Y..

child((XX,,YY)) - X is the child of Y..

sibling//22 (rreflexive))

grandparent((XX,,YY)) - X is the grandparent of Y..

grandmother((XX,,YY)) - X is the grandmother of Y..

grandfather((XX,,YY)) - X is the grandfather of Y..

grandchild((XX,,YY)) - X is the gradchild of Y..

grandson((XX,,YY)) - X is the grandson of Y..

granddaughter((XX,,YY)) - X is the granddaughter of Y..

Note:: Your definitions should avoid infinite recursion and return a single result set.. For

example,, siblings((XX,,YY)) should queries should return a single result set,, i..ee.. not X==bbob ,

Y==jjoe ; X==jjoe , Y==bbob .

Note:: The Knowledge Base of people below is for example only.. You are just responsible for the definitions of predicate rules.. The Knowledge Base used for grading will be different..

Examples::

% Knowledge Base

male((aadam))..

male((bbob))..

male((bbrett))..

male((ccharles))..

male((cchris))..

male((cclay))..

female((aava))..

female((bbarbara))..

female((bbetty))..

female((ccolette))..

female((ccarrie))..

parent((aadam,,bbob))..

parent((aadam,,bbarbara )..

parent((aava,,bbob))..

parent((aava,,bbarbara))..

parent((bbob,,cclay))..

parent((bbarbara,,ccolette))..

? - mother((aava,,KKid))

Kid = bob;;

Kid = barbara..

? - sibling((XX,,YY))..

X = bob,,

Y = barbara;;

? - grandparent((GGParent,,ccolette))..

GParent = adam;;

GParent = ava..
