Re: computer-go: Perfect-play score on small boards

[Erik van der Werf <E.vanderWerf@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

5x5 is solved by computer. 6x6 and 7x7 are (claimed to be) solved by
humans, the proves look convincing but not beyond any doubt. Chinese
rules are preferred over Japanese rules because they contain less
inconsistencies. Using superko easily creates an unmanageable search
tree, .i.e. don't use superko just treat repetition as a draw.
