A few simple rules ... limitless possibilities

The family of the late Allan Scarff has generously made publicly available a number of files of Allan's work in the area of Go-playing software and Artificial Intelligence, in the hope that others interested in these fields will find them useful.

Allan was a pioneer of computer Go, writing a number of award-winning programs for BBC Acorn microcomputers in the 1980s (see his obituary and in British Go Journal 159, Spring 2012 for details) and a highly successful program for a Nintendo Games Machine.
