prunephrases

Purpose

Remove all phrases from a KB subhierarchy.

Syntax

returnedBoolean = prunephrases(hierarchyCon)

returnedBoolean - type: bool
hierarchyCon - type: con

Returns

Nothing.

Remarks

Phrases may be used to implement arbitrary sequential knowledge. For example, the Gram Tab implementation utilizes phrases to represent the samples of a rule concept. Each node in the phrase belonging to a rule concept represents one user-highlighted sample. The node's name itself is used to represent the sample's text.

Example

@CODE
# Warning: Exit VisualText without saving, after running this example, or your Gram Tab
# hierarchy will lose all its samples!
G("root") = findroot(); # Get the root concept of the KB.
G("gram") = findconcept(G("root"), "gram"); # Get root of Gram hierarchy.

prunephrases(G("gram")); # Remove all the samples in the Gram hierarchy!
