Me sirvió bastante para mi clase de PROLOG, muchas gracias!

Me tira uma dúvida, eu sou novo em Prolog, e acontece que, quando eu executo alguns códigos, como esse "Simple expert system - Animal", eu inicio o jogo com "go." direitinho, daí quando eu escolho a opção "y" ou "n", aparece um traço com dois pontos "|:" e depois não acontece mais nada. Uso Windows 10, 32 bits. Me ajudem quem entender, please.
