Go Text Protocol

Go text protocol, also known as GTP, is a way for computer programs to communicate with each other. It's like you and your friend using special words to talk to each other instead of regular words.

GTP is often used in the game of Go, where a computer program can play against a human player or another computer program. The program uses GTP commands to tell the computer its next move, and the computer responds with information about the game board and the current state of the game.

GTP commands are written in a special computer language, which is like writing a secret code that only the program can understand. The program uses these commands to tell the computer what to do, like move a stone on the game board or calculate the best possible move.

GTP is a useful tool for playing the game of Go, or any other game that uses a digital interface. It makes it easy for programs to communicate with each other and for players to interact with the game.
