jfc: can someone please provide a straight forward algorithm for figuring out the miai value of a position?
Given the discussion on the Miai Counting page it seems as if such an algorithm is possible but being a new comer to this topic I am not yet ready to give it a try myself.
I'm guessing the that miai value of a move (or play) is the change in the miai value of a position before and after the play.
aceofspades: I was wondering about a miai-value algorithm as well, or at least a program. However, I still don't fully understand how the definition of miai values works, so...I'm empty on both counts, although I might be willing to try to make a small tool if someone comes up with the algorithm.
