Success.
Please visit my projects page if you want to see my Othello AI program, written purely in Python. I should add that some of my teacher’s code from high school is buried within my modifications so he deserves credit as well, which I’ll fix shortly. For now you can give it a whirl. I’ll be posting a download link with a template for creating your own Othello-playing AI that will work with my program. I still have to work out the security issues of having people upload their own code, so that won’t be available for now. I can also post the non-web source code for download.
Learning about CGI with Python brings me one step closer to delving into Plone and Zope. I could have just gone at it right away, but I don’t have too much time yet as I’m still in school and I needed to brush up on my Python. Now that I’m all set, I can start playing with web frameworks. Should be fun.
