Coding chess

On the lower end of estimates, the number of unique chess board configurations is 10^120, often referred to as the Shannon number. The universe doesn't stand a chance.
maybe a distant future technology could compute that, Clarktech style

The solution to chess is almost certainly a draw, since this is what all top engine chess converges to. Otherwise you are completely correct: chess is unsolved and will likely never be solved.

Professor was an idiot if it gave a D for a working solution. Getting it working is the grade, optimizing is the next step.
Don’t teach lol

bes way to learn is by doing what you're not supposed to

Dwarf planets sometimes have moons (e.g. Pluto)
Some large asteroids have moons too.

This is supposed to be a joke but sadly a lot of beginner tutorials on coding Tic-Tac-Toe teach this

This is very inefficient, they should be using a switch case.
wrote on last edited by [email protected]For efficiency you should you GOTO, so you can join trees that end up in same position.
Like those create your own adventures books.

Did the program cheat? Tic tac toe is a tie if opponents play correctly.
I'm probably remembering it wrong, it was a long time ago. It definitely always either won or tied but could never lose, because it knew the right responses to every move. No, it didn't cheat lol.

Placing moves in invalid locations, passing a turn, or making multiple moves on one turn?
There are no invalid locations in tic Tac toe, passing a turn provides no advantage, I suppose you could take extra turns to cheat.

Programming chess as a single lookup table is wild
Its written vibe.

Found the guy who passed the test with
printf (" *\n **\n ***\n ****\n*****\n); -

Considering that enough pro's are doing the same, perhaps you didn't really do it wrong?

So if your moral and intellectual superior was being upvoted, you’d concede me being right? You’re even dumber than I first assessed. Run along worthless dumbfuck, leave your superior alone.

An invalid turn would be something like placing a move on top of an already-filled square or outside of the 9 grid spaces. It seems obvious to a human that you can't do these things, but computer bugs have a tendency to do things you don't expect. And yes, passing a turn doesn't provide an advantage, but I listed it because it's still technically cheating.

Some large asteroids have moons too.
this leads to the question: are they still considered a moon when the barycenter is in the space between them?

There is no clear definition of what constitutes a moon other than it being a body that orbits another body that orbits the parent star.
There are some astronomers who say the dividing line between a moon-planet/dwarf planet/asteroid system and binary (or more) planet/dwarf planet/asteroid system is whether or not the barycenter of the orbits is within one of the bodies or not.
And fun fact: if that definition gained acceptance, it would mean that the Pluto-Charon system would go from a dwarf planet-moon system to a binary dwarf planet system. Charon could get a promotion.
