This code provides a basic implementation of a reasoning engine. The `KnowledgeBase` class stores facts, and the `rule_engine` function checks if a given fact logically follows from existing facts based on predefined rules. The `create_reasoning_engine` function demonstrates how to use these components together to derive new knowledge.
