i have list in prolog for example L=[a,b,c,d,e,f]
, i want to convert this list to new list that has this type L2=[[a,b],[c,d],[e,f]]
, in other words, i want to convert every two consecutive element in the list to new list.

the plain Prolog, tailored on your requirements:
'convert every two consecutive element'([], []). % base case
'convert every two consecutive element'([A,B|R], [[A,B]|S]) :-
'convert every two consecutive element'(R, S).
The list length must be even for this to succeed, otherwise you will need to refine the base case.
