"""
Interfaces and base classes for theorem provers and model builders.
``Prover`` is a standard interface for a theorem prover which tries to prove a goal from a
list of assumptions.
``ModelBuilder`` is a standard interface for a model builder. Given just a set of assumptions.
the model builder tries to build a model for the assumptions. Given a set of assumptions and a
goal *G*, the model builder tries to find a counter-model, in the sense of a model that will satisfy
the assumptions plus the negation of *G*.
