  Hay Laura,

  I asked the question before my coffee started working this morning.

  heuristics are just educated guesses.  I suppose it can be useful in 
developing strategies, but it's not the only part of the science... Hey Jim, 
this must have been a good question with all the attention it has 
received...*smile*

    Heuristics, perhaps?

    Hi,

    I'm not sure how to ask this question since I don't have the background 
yet. When you have a program that is playing a game, let's say a simple game, 
like TicTacToe, and it tries to figure out what the best move is, what is that 
whole subject called? Or when you have a game where you are moving two people 
around and you don't want them to run into one-another, is that the same 
subject?

    Thanks.

    Jim
