Traditional board size, "X" vs. "O"
Interactive mode: cargo run
Single-Turn mode (used for API): cargo run single-turn
Play by entering column numbers, starting at 0, increasing going right (max column number is 6)
Board must be fed in as simple 7x6 characters, being "X", "O", or "_" (empty). See example file We assume that X is the player using the API. The bot will play O, and place it on the board. The output can be in one of two categories:
- It starts with "---". This means that the game is not over. What follows after this line is the state of the new board.
- Any other condition means the output is a CSV file with columns x, y, and team. Team will be the same in both (which is the winner) and the x and y will be coordinates of the two endpoints of the connect 4.
(see main.rs
)
TWO_PLAYER
- whether or not it's two player.
NUM_TEST_GAMES
- number of random test games to be played in the
Montecarlo simulation. Balance between "accuracy" and speed.
10,000 is reasonable.
