This code creates a simple reasoning engine that uses a knowledge base to answer questions and infer conclusions. The `KnowledgeBase` class manages facts and provides basic querying capabilities, while the `reasoning_engine` function demonstrates how to use this knowledge base for more complex tasks like inference.
