Did something go wrong in the Eureka step here? What does the variable
X do?
double(X0, X, Y0, Y) :-
double(X0, X, Y0, Y1, Y1, Y).
double(X, X, Y, Y, Z, Z).
double([E|X1], X, [E|Y1], Y, [E|Z1], Z) :-
double(X1, X, Y1, Y, Z1, Z).
Why not write ;
double(X0,Y0,Y):-
double(X0,Y0,Y1,Y1,Y).
double([],Y,Y,Z,Z).
double([E|X1],[E|Y1],Y,[E|Z1],Z):-
double(X1,Y1,Y,Z1,Z).
