Determinacy of the query pattern
p(g)
w.r.t. the given Prolog program could successfully be proven:

(0) Obligation:

Clauses:

p(X) :- ','(q(f(Y)), p(Y)).
p(g(X)) :- p(X).
q(g(Y)).

Query: p(g)

(1) PrologDeterminacyProcessorProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

The root node satisfies the determinacy criterion.
