Laboratory 6:

Instruction: Answer all questions individually and submit a hardcopy at the end of the lab
session.

1. What is the difference between minimax and alpha-beta pruning?


Mini max is applying the whole tree and exponential without cutting into half. The Alpha -
beta pruning is applying the cutting into half, and it will make sure the has the correct
minimax decision.

2. Assume the given node in Figure 1 as the root node at MAX node, draw the game tree until
the game ends. Show the evaluation function for each node. For each leaf node, identify the
utility function (+1 for Max’s win, -1, for Max’s lose and 0 for draw). The evaluation
function is f(n) = m(n) – o(n) where

m(n) = number of available rows, columns, diagonals for MAX


o(n) = number of available rows, columns, diagonals for MIN

3. Based on the game tree in Figure 2, find the best move for the MAX player using Alpha-beta
pruning. Show the value of α and β for each node MAX and MIN.

Alpha-beta pruning rule

Max = α = -∞ If (α ≥β) The branch must be cut


β=+

Min = β = -∞
α = +∞
