Session 2: An Intelligent Piece of Paper Instructions
You will be using a piece of paper to understand how to not lose at Noughts and Crosses. This makes use of an algorithm that makes decisions based on what counters have been placed on a noughts and crosses grid. In the session you will see how a set of instructions can be used to make decisions. This session will take between 35 and 45 minutes to complete.
By the end of the session you will:
-
understand the function of a decision making algorithm
-
be clear that the steps of the algorithm have to be followed exactly
-
understand the need to test the algorithm to make sure it works with different data
