+# Sessions and Predicates
+# By specifying a session, the AIML can tailor different conversations to different users. 
+# For example, if one user tells the bot their name is Alice, 
+# and the other user tells the bot their name is Bob, the bot can differentiate the two users.
+# To specify which session you are using you pass it as a second parameter to respond().

+sessionId = 12345
+kernel.respond(raw_input(">>>"), sessionId)
+
+# This is good for having personalized conversations with each user. 
+# You will have to generate your own session Id some how and track them. 
+# According to my analysis,I found out that saving the brain file does not save all the session values.
+
+sessionId = 12345
+
+# Get session info as dictionary. Contains the input
+# and output history as well as any predicates known
+sessionData = kernel.getSessionData(sessionId)
+
+# Each session ID needs to be a unique value
+# The predicate name is the name of user
+# that the bot knows about in session with the bot
+# The bot might know me as "lawrence" and that your "dog" is named "jeepers"

+# In the AIML we can set predicates using the set response in template
