Go: information is added to the system
Go is several thousand years old
yasunari kawabata
the master of go
divine move -- one nobody can see
rules of go
2 players, black goes first
one move per players
stones at intersections
placed stones don't move
count intersections to win
straight line connections
capturing stones is really hard
must always go to a new state
scoring begins when both players pass
initial advantage from black
white gets extra points
tradeoffs
golden rules
greed never wins
do not rush in blindly
be prepared when fighting
sacrifice to gain advantage
drop small, save big
don't waste on the unsalvageable
think before action
duet with strategy
strong walls over weak stones
look for the balance and gain influence
no silver bullet
learn to play go book
