Be carefull about the term 'random'. When the game ended, does it counting the score randomly??If so, it throws the rules of the game out of the window. How can it improve with the depth? If not, then it's not completely random. As?Don mentioned earlier, if the?evaluation function can evaluate the end score correctly and the?search?depth?is reachng the game end, the so called 'random' evaluation becomes a 100% correct evaluation function.??
