Computer Go is a game like Chess, except it's played on a square board with 19 rows and 19 columns instead of 8x8. The game involves two players (black and white) who take turns placing stones on the intersections of the lines, trying to surround and capture each other's stones.
The game can be very complicated because there are so many possible moves, and it's hard to predict what the other player will do. This is where computer programs come in. They can use mathematical algorithms and machine learning techniques to analyze the game and make intelligent moves.
The goal of computer Go is to create a program that can beat expert human players. This is a difficult task because Go requires strategic thinking, intuition, and creativity, which are skills that computers are not naturally good at. However, recent advances in artificial intelligence have led to some breakthroughs in computer Go, and the best programs can now compete with the top players in the world.
