[gnugo-devel] tests vs HT

[max-d]

Congrats for the  Gnugo Olympiad results !

Here are some other results (vs HANDTALK) .
HANDTALK is this old software (1997) which is today sold as HANDTALK 2000
for windows but it is clear that the 2000 version is the same than the one
of 1997 .
So running on a 2 years old 1.4 Ghz Athlon ,the program ,at its higher level
plays every move instantly .

HANDTALK  style is very special.
II is very easy ,even for a weak player to win by a huge score (beating
Gnugo and Go++ by such a margin is a lot more difficult ) ...
But computers still have  huge problems against it.

In any case , the games are often interesting , comparing to those opposing
GNUgo and GO++ for instance  .

=GNUGO_3.4  lv 10=  60
= HANDTALK      51

time = GNUGO_3.4: 38073
time = HANDTALK: 5574

(HT times are probably closer to 1/2 or 1/4 of the values given here)


COSMIC_GNUGO lv 10= 44
HANDTALK 35

time = COSMIC_GNUGO: 35072
time = HANDTALK: 5306

= GO++ lv 4=  47
= HANDTALK 24

time = GO++: 17393
time = HANDTALK: 3247


= WINHONTE (default level) =16
= HANDTALK 28

time = WINHONTE: 10877
time = HANDTALK: 2406

Here are one example of a big loss and a big win for GG3.4
