If there really is a difference between (1) and (2) then I have always been completely oblivious to it. For your third (3) case I again see not what the difference is.
Here are some very simple examples, all on 9x9 boards: Case 1: . . . . O # . . . . . . . O # . . . . . . . O # . . . . . . . O # . . . . . . . O # . . . . . . . O # . . . . . . . O # . . . . . . .

But it's harder to find information about the more 'pragmatic' side of computer-go. How do you score a go board? What do you mean by "score a go board"? I can think of three reasonable possibilities. (1.) Count the score in a game that is over. (2.) Count the score in a game that is not over, but both players have passed because they think it is. (3.) Count the score in a game that is still being played. (1) is difficult but practicable. (2) is similar to (1), so long as you are not bothered about the result being meaningful, but just want to calculate the score as a referee might if asked to score a game in which both players have passed prematurely. (3) is as difficult as playing Go perfectly. Nick What would be a faster algorithm to score a go-board? Could you pre-calculate and accumulate some information early in the game (on every move), knowing you're going to evaluate the board many times? When do you decide to finish/score the game? Also, what are some of the languages used besides C(++)? Does anyone work in something like java or a functional language?
