Well spotted. These are the references: "Artificial Intelligence", by Patrick Henry Winston https://courses.csail.mit.edu/6.034f/ai3/rest.pdf (I think that must be a later edition because the page number she references isn't meaningful.) "Some Studies in Machine Learning Using the Game of Checkers" http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/download?doi=10.1.1.368.2254&rep=rep1&type=pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
