David Fotland's approach, and Dr. Chen's approach are to manually assign
the value. I'd like to hear any other approaches.

Thanks.

Just curious about two different approaches to matching patterns:

A)  Look at the local setup, match for a pattern, and make the move in
the 
pattern:

1234
....a
.X..b
XOX.c
....d

the pattern says: move to d2.

But I've taken this approach, which I'd like comments on:

B)  Make the move (in memory), and then lookup the pattern, and in each 
pattern it will state (very good, good, ok, bad, very bad)

1234
...Xa
.X..b
XOX.c
....d

VERY BAD

1234
....a
.X..b
XOX.c
X...d

OK (or maybe GOOD)

1234
....a
.X..b
X.X.c
.X..d

VERY GOOD
