public class FiveTypes

extends NoRecursionTemplate

Strategy for ConwayGo. Slow, but good for developing new strategies. Distinguishes between five types of moves:

• offensive put: put a piece to have a wider jump
• offensive jump: jump as far as you can
• defensive jump: jump to prevent a good jump of the opponent
• passive put: put a piece to have a defensive jump next turn
• block: put a piece to shorten the opponent's jump
