/** Support for Definite Clause Grammars.
A Prolog definite clause grammar (DCG) describes a sequence. Operationally, DCGs
can be used to parse, generate, complete and check sequences manifested as lists.
Check [The Power of Prolog chapter on DCGs](https://www.metalevel.at/prolog/dcg)
to learn more about them.
