Hi, I'm Grant Castillou. You can read my AI Heaven text by clicking on the link below (you may have to click through a FortuneCity ad first). Also, I have written three introductions to boardgame programming. Thegames are Gomoku, Checkers, and Othello. Each game file includes a playableprogram, the program's BASIC source code, and text that explains the sourcecode. You may download any game file you want by clicking on the links below. The .zip files will require an unzipping utility such as the one builtinto later versions of Windows, or PKWare's Pkunzip.exe. The programsare not sophisticated and are intended as beginning introductions to boardgameprogramming. The Gomoku program is the simplest, so you might want to startthere. The Checkers and Othello programs both use the minimax method,which is used by commercial programs. The programs will only run on a Dos or WindowsPC, or equivalent. These files are free, but if you like any of them I wouldappreciate a donation of a few bucks. My mailing address is given inthe Read1st.txt file included with all the files. My email address is grantcas@canada.com
