I have a function called :

match_pre([test], K) :- !, append([S|T],_, K), length([S|T],1), test(S)

and I have a huge database of predicates which succeeds if S is in the database, example:

test(a).
test(b).
test(z).
test(u).
test(h).
etc......

Now I want to create another function that matches from right to left, how can I do that? In other words,
say the function is called match_suf([test], ).

I want it to say:

true;
no

I want to match is a [test], instead of doing it the original left to right way
