Re: [computer-go] Local search

[Don Dailey <drd@xxxxxxx>]

Hi Frank,

I  have  some routines  in  my  program that  focus  on  the group  in
question.  The way I do it, and I doubt it's best, is that I only move
to liberties  of the target group,  and at very shallow  levels of the
search I will consider some points  2 away from the group.  It's a bit
more  complicated that my  simple description  but that's  the general
idea.

I think there are some folks on this group who have it down to an art.

Don

   I suppose, for live and death or safety problems you usually use a local
   search. But how do you specify the search area for a local search?
   Let's suppose that we want to check wether a certain block or group is alive
   or dead. We could take the bounding box of the block and, for example,
   extend it by 2 in every direction. But I think, that wouldn't be very
   expedient in some cases. How do you handle that?

   P.S.: Is the old list computer-go@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx still working?
