Creating the PERFECT Connect 4 A.I.

Online board game: * exists * Code Bullet: "And I took that personally"

3:34 To be fair, placing down 8 pieces in one move is a pretty solid option for the cpu to make

"Alpha beta pruning is like normal minimax, but a bit fucky-wucky" Thanks Code Bullet, I needed that for my CS exam tomorrow.

I am truly impressed by how energetic cb has gotten, he used to be so calm and composed all the time XD

Should be called “bullying nerds by being a bigger better nerd”

“That’s where this week’s sponsor comes in” Me: more like this month’s sponsor

i like how his whole thing is "bullying nerds" now but he's making a fucking connect 4 a.i.

I ran a Connect 4 AI competition in college, not realizing it was a solved game. The winner just made http calls to an online minimax game to get their next move...

Ah, a sponsor. That explains all the swearing and disobeying mama Susan.

I like how he says “time to plagiarize” but then he literally gives pascal all the credit.

I love how the board he used as an example is an impossible state 2:56

Evan: "C++ good, python bad" Me who is currently learning C++ in school: signature look of superiority

"son, what did you do today" "well i watched an aggressive australian man hack an online children's game for his own amusement. and oh yeah he profusely swore the whole time"

8:00 “I was this close to giving up” Hands are shoulder width apart

“…which is like normal minimaxing but a bit fucky-wucky” is an absolutely gold line

I feel like code bullet is going to be the guy solely responsible for the robot uprising

Code bullet: uploads within a month Me: don't do that, don't give me hope...

Honestly, that was such a smart ‘cheat’. I’m impressed.

In case if anyone doesn’t understand: A chair is a type of seat, typically designed for one person and consisting of one or more legs, a flat or slightly angled seat and a back-rest. They may be made of wood, metal, or synthetic materials, and may be padded or upholstered in various colors and fabrics. Chairs vary in design. An armchair has armrests fixed to the seat; a recliner is upholstered and features a mechanism that lowers the chair's back and raises into place a footrest; a rocking chair has legs fixed to two long curved slats; and a wheelchair has wheels fixed to an axis under the seat. Chairs can be made from wood, metal, or other strong materials, like stone or acrylic. In some cases, multiple materials are used to construct a chair; for example, the legs and frame may be made from metal and the seat and back may be made from plastic. Chairs may have hard surfaces of wood, metal, plastic, or other materials, or some or all of these hard surfaces may be covered with upholstery or padding. The design may be made of porous materials, or be drilled with holes for decoration; a low back or gaps can provide ventilation. The back may extend above the height of the occupant's head, which can optionally contain a headrest. Chairs can also be made from more creative materials, such as recycled materials like cutlery and wooden play bricks, pencils, plumbing tubes, rope, corrugated cardboard, and PVC pipe. In rare cases, chairs are made out of unusual materials, especially as a form of art or experimentation. Raimonds Cirulis, a Latvian interior designer, created a volcanic hanging chair that is handmade out of volcanic rock.Peter Brenner, a Dutch-born German designer, has created a chair made from lollipop sugar – 60 pounds (27 kg) of confectioners' sugar. Ergonomic design distributes the weight of the occupant to various parts of the body. This is done by having an easily adjustable seat height. A seat that is higher results in dangling feet and increased pressure on the underside of the knees ("popliteal fold"). It may also result in no weight on the feet which means more weight elsewhere. A lower seat may shift too much weight to the "seat bones" ("ischial tuberosities"). Gas springs are attached to the body of the chair in order to give height adjustment and more comfort to the user. Some chairs have foot rests. Around 15% of women and 2% of men need foot rests, even at the 16-inch (41 cm) chair height. A stool or other simple chair may have a simple straight or curved bar near the bottom for the sitter to place their feet on. Actual chair dimensions are determined by measurements of the human body or anthropometric measurements. The two most relevant anthropometric measurement for chair design is the popliteal height and buttock popliteal length. For someone seated, the popliteal height is the distance from the underside of the foot to the underside of the thigh at the knees. It is sometimes called the "stool height". The term "sitting height" is reserved for the height to the top of the head when seated. For American men, the median popliteal height is 16.3 inches (41 cm) and for American women it is 15.0 inches (38 cm).The popliteal height, after adjusting for heels, clothing and other issues, is used to determine the height of the chair seat. Mass-produced chairs are typically 17 inches (43 cm) high.Researchers such as Mary Blade and Galen Cranz found that sitting on the edge of a high stool with feet on the floor is less harmful for the lower back than sitting up straight on a conventional chair.
