* Figure 9.14 Sketch of the OTTER theorem prover. Heuristic control is applied
* in the selection of the "lightest" clause and in the FILTER function that
* eliminates uninteresting clauses from consideration.
*
* Note: The original implementation of OTTER has been retired but its
* successor, Prover9, can be found at:
* http://www.prover9.org/
* or
* http://www.cs.unm.edu/~mccune/
* mace4/
* Should you wish to play with a mature implementation of a theorem prover :-)
