FRIDAY 27 MAY 1967
146th day - 219 days to come
Bought a souvenir game EXPO 67.
At Canadian exhibit saw a game played against a computer
called HEXAPAWN. Each side has three pawns. They can
either move directly forward or capture diagonally
forward. May move forward even if a capture is
available. Win by eliminating the opposing pcs., by
reaching the opposite side with one pc., or blocking
the opponent from moving. The computer starts with
only the rules but learns th strategy as it plays.
