访问存储在变量中的列表的头部和尾部作为进一步谓词的输入（Prolog）

Question

So, I have a simple list. Let's say:

L([a,b,c]).

I want to access the Head and Tail (H|T) so I can recursively use the elements as input for other predicates. Basically

somePredicate(a),
someOtherPredicate(T).

until the list is empty. How can I do that?

I generated the list using:

range(0,L) :-    
    L = [].
range(1,L) :- 
    L = [].
range(M,L) :-
    NewM is M - 1,
    numlist(1, NewM, L).

Answer 1

Simple:

 pre([H|T]):-
        writeln(H),
        writeln(T),
        pre(T).

?-pre([a,b,c]).
OUTPUT:
a
[b, c]
b
[c]
c
[]

If you want to use the values with another predicate:

pre([H|T]):-
            writeln(H),
            pre1(T),
            pre(T).

pre1([H|T]):-
 writeln([H|T]).

?-pre([a,b,c]).
OUTPUT:
a
[b, c]
b
[c]
c
[]
