my guess is that you are in fact missing something -- it seems unlikely that they enumerated _on disk_ all possible games and their correct response moves.
anything taking up less space than that would require something more intelligent (or at least with a better capacity to collapse situations) than brute force. please someone set me straight -- if it's simply a list, generated one at a time, of board positions and response moves, i'll have a merry laugh tonight. s. ----- Original Message ---- From: David Doshay <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: computer-go <computer-go@computer-go.org> Sent: Thursday, July 19, 2007 3:53:01 PM Subject: Re: [computer-go] Draughts / Checkers solved apparently you are not missing anything.
