["comp go" <go_comp@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

A silly question from yet another flash in the computer go pan:

Does anyone have an algorithm for determining whether or not a
group of stones is unconditionally alive (i.e. cannot be captured
by the opponent even if the player does nothing but pass for the
rest of the game)?  If so, would you be kind enough to explain it?

Thanks,
-Matt
