# Ckini

A miniKanren implementation in Elixir.

## Usage

``` elixir
defmodule Demo do
import Ckini
alias Ckini.Var

def readme_demo do
run {x, y, z} do
# simple goal
eq(y, 1)
# a conde goal
conde do
_ -> eq(y, 2)
_ -> eq(z, 3)
_ -> eq(x, 4)
end
# you can create logic variable with fresh
fresh t do
eq(x, [y, z, t, "hello"])
end
end
end
end

test "demo in README should work correctly" do
assert [{[1, 3, :_0, "hello"], 1, 3}] == Demo.readme_demo()
end
```

API available: `run/2`, `run/3`, `eq` (`===`), `neq` (`=/=`), `cond{e,i,a,u}`, `match{e,i,a,u}`, `all`, `project`, `succ`, `fail`, `symbolo`, `absento`, `copy_termo`, `anyo`, `onceo`.

Check out the https://github.com/shouya/ckini/blob/master/test/*_test.exs for more usage examples.

## Feature highlights

- arithmetic operators (See `Ckini.Arithmetic`)
- introduction of fresh variables via `cond{e,i,a,u}`
- pattern matching with `match{e,i,a,u}` macros
- inequality (`neq`) constraint
- symbolo constraint
- absento constraint
