% This file can be used to test consult/1 and reconsult/1.

% Consult this file and run test/0 to see if clauses must be contiguous.
% Consult it again and see if clauses for f1/1 are duplicated.
% Then reconsult it and see if the duplicates are removed.
% Finally, run test/1 to see if reconsult/1 requires clauses to be contiguous.
