Game playing:
-------------

* Brief description and AI targeted area:

Game playing is a very important and attractive area of AI. This specific field is referred to as game playing, and also encompasses methods from the problem-solving area of AI, and/or natural language processing, and/or vision, graphics, etc. This is a very rich area of AI.

The project you will have to work on aims at implementing a game, with two players, the ultimate goal being to have two computers play against each other. Therefore there should be two teams working on this project: challenging teams that will have to compete at the end of the project. The winner will receive extra credit. 

* Of course, being two teams working on the same game involves that you will have to meet at the early stage of the project to decide of a common programming language, and some other necessary standards.

This game you will have to implement is the following: ???
	WHICH GAME ?????????????????
	Puissance 4 3-D.
	Othello
	Ping-Pong

* Description of the objectives and tasks:

By the end of the project, you will have:
- written a short tutorial about game playing and AI: this tutorial will be handed out to all 		students in the class; this tutorial should be ready by the end of week 4 of the project 		timeline;
- implemented software able to play the above-described game with computer vs human, or computer 		vs computer; run experiments and report / analyze the results. 

You will also have to write a report in which you will include:
- an introduction: presenting the problem you plan to address, and explain how you will tackle 		it; explain how it is related to AI and what specific area it is related to;
- the description of your team: names of the students, tasks assignment (contribution of each 	
	one), timeline of your work;
- the description of your system:
	* which method(s) you used and how you implemented it (justify your choice and make your 		descriptions clear)
	* what strategy(ies) you used to make your system efficient: explain why your system is 	expected to be more efficient than your challengers';
- the report of your testing your system:
	* with a sample of users;
	* does your system meet your expectations? why?
- a discussion of what went wrong and why: self-criticism;
- a conclusion: synthesis of your work, future work directions (what you would do if you were 		given more time on your project).
