Thanks Wolfgang,
but i had solve already my problem.
My question was only about the duplication of /"nots/", that one has to
write in order to not duplicate facts. I handle the situation creating a
function that check if a list contains a specific element or set of
elements, without mind to the sequence.
Like for example you have a fact:
/(black-cars (id A B))/
and somewhere you have a rule that takes two cars, but then you enforce
that the cars cannot be black, like:
/(defrule ...
(car (id ?id1))
(car (id ?id2))
(not (black-black-cars (id ?id1 ?id2))/
..
now, if the matching variables get: ?id1=B, and ?id2=A, then the rule
will be fired, and the only way to avoid this is having another "/not/"
swaping the ids. This kind of solution becomes really confuse, if you
have a list of 3 or more elements. So, i implement a function that check
if a list contains a set of elements. My question in the mailing list
was only wondering if there was a more clean way to make this. It seems not.
Regards,
Joao

Hello,
/(defrule get-black-cars
(car (id ?id1) (color "black"))
(car (id ?id2 &:(~= ?id1 ?id2)) (color "black"))
(and (not (black-cars (car-id ?id1 ?id2)) (not (black-cars
(car-id ?id2 ?id1)))
=>
(assert (black-cars (car-id ?id1 ?id2)))/
The second CE is better written as
(car (id ?id2 & ~?id1)) (color "black"))
My question is: There is a matching way of avoid this
comparison? The only thing i want to know is which are the
black cars, not the order.
You are talking of sets (in the mathematical sense). For the
general case you might consider using a java.util.Set as a
(non-multi-)slot value.
