      You would just need to flick through until you found a page where x wins, and then work back from the page number.
      For example if it was page 123, just scroll through until you found a page that says “go to page 123” then say that page number was 56, then scroll through until you find one that says go to page 53…
      Must be faster than trying every single combination

      @sophiatrocentraisin Před rokem +64

      Turns out the Tic-Tac-Toe decision tree is so small you can solve it with sheer brute-force, so a min-max algorithm which goes deep enough will just generate the whole decision tree from scratch.
      Ultimate tic-tac-toe, on the other hand, will have a min-max algorithm perform very poorly, because it's very hard to make a good heuristic for this game

    For those curious, winning is going first and picking middle. Then pick opposite corner of the circle. Then pick another free corner or the corner that blocks the 3 in a row. Now you have 2 options of winning by going horizontally from the 2 corners you picked or diagonally trough middle. So any play made by the opposite player will allow you to win in your next turn
