I didn't present it for that reason and I'm not the one that claimed it could be played by formula. But this might be a first step towards creating a formula if it's even possible, so I presented it as a curiosity.
Yeah, I understood that.
Which makes me wonder if there is a reasonable alternate way to represent the game of Go?
Maybe an abstract graph representation of some kind?
Incidently, I'm no math whiz, but isn't a computer program basically a mathematical representation of something? And isn't a computer function pretty much a mathematical function? Isn't a recursive function a finite series?
But the question is whether there exists a computational shortcut. _______________________________________________ computer-go mailing list computer-go@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://www.computer-go.org/mailman/listinfo/computer-go/
