(b. September 6, 1940) Professor at Berkeley, leading figure in the application of combinatorial game theory to Go. Coauthor of Winning Ways and Mathematical Go.
To measure the precise value of moves, Dr. Berlekamp also created "Coupon Go", a variant in which players can select a coupon with a known point value rather than playing a move.
