Search Tree

It's the end of the semester, and projects are coming due, so I haven't posted lately. The low post frequency will continue until the end of the week at the earliest. Anyway, I was making a list of all the stuff I need to get done this week, and it occurred to me that planning for the semester is kind of like adversarial search in game playing. Right now, the leaves of the tree are coming into sight, and I'm close to determining the outcome of the game. It looks like I'll win, but with a narrow margin of victory.
