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.
