My game :)

I was in Florida for Christmas break (came back today, just before school is back...:(

so I couldn't really be here...

Not that it matters much now, since I already got my 98 in that course, but how would I make the AI better? What it can do in the highest level is make double traps and detect human double traps so it blocks it. I guess the next step would be to think multiple turns ahead, to set up a double trap or to see how the player can potentially set up a double trap in a few turns and block that...

Ya it should be very easy.... for example, to construct a double trap, the computer should do something like this:

for every one of the 7 columns, put a piece, and then do level6 to see if when the piece is there (ie. next turn) there is a double trap available, and the same goes for blocking a player's potential trap

I've never thought really of making a "demo"... but actually I kind of did this once, when we had this project, we had a tournament for fun to see who has the best AI, so me and my opponent would both play the hardest level of our games and in each turn we would play what the other person's computer played

and my game hd a record of 6-0 :P

(it's a bit sad that that was the best AI in my school... but I'm not comlaining)
