Hello everyone. I'm new to this list. Sorry for resurrect such old thread, but after read it all, I can't reach a conclusion: is there anyway to represent a Go position?
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg05749.html I'm aware about the *ko rules and that I can't say if the current position already happened in the game. My problem: I just need to store the current position in the game plus the side to move. Is FEN sufficient? Also, if I need to deal with *ko rules/repetition, I'm considering store all positions, since the worst scenario (from file size perspective) would be the entire board covered plus a ko point: bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb/bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb/bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb/bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb/bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb/bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb/bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb/bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb/bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb/bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb/bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb/bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb/bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb/bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb/bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb/bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb/bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb/bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb/bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb/bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb b s19 This FEN file have 428 bytes. Assuming 300 moves, I would spend 130 kB. Storage isn't my problem here. So, my question is: is my approach reasonable? What would you recommend otherwise? Again: sorry for resurrecting such old thread, but I couldn't find any "Search archives" function. Also, sorry about my poor English.
