Programming strategies in the game of push-over
Journal Article

· IEEE Micro; (United States)
Some heuristic techniques used in programming games, and particularly techniques applied to the game of push-over, are discussed. Push-over is a simple, two-person, strictly competitive game. By a strictly competitive (or zero-sum) game is meant one in which one player always wins and his opponent always loses, making cooperation never worthwhile. In push-over, one can develop what is known as a strategic-value function, which serves as a heuristic to optimise a player's response to a given situation. The choice of the strategic-value function, the characteristics of three different strategies and the details of the game's data and program structures are examined. 4 references.
