Re: [computer-go] citation

So, what exactly is wrong with using John's definition, and applying
the term "ladder" to it?  That seems the most natural thing to call
it, and also the most useful definition to attach to the term.
I've always referred to it as "2-lib tactical searching".

With the stricter ladder definition you could scan out along a diagonal to read the ladder. Or at least jump to the point where you have to read out something special.

Having said that I read ladders with general tactical search code - messing around with special code has never seemed worth it. Do any of the strong programs do special ladder handling?
