Problem Set 2                 Due Wednesday 10/22 at 1:30pm (Hand in printout at start of class)

See the policy on lateness and collaboration.

 

In all problems below, please think carefully before answering questions – strive for a terse, precise explanation. Points may be taken off for overly long or complex explanations. If  it is impossible answer a question with the information given, feel free to make additional assumptions (just state them clearly).


1.      R&N – exercise 7.9

2.      R&N – exercise 8.6 a-d

3.      R&N – exercise 8.7

4.      R&N – exercise 9.4

5.      Start planning your project.

a.       Choose a name for your team or for the agent you aspire to create.

b.      What is the name of the classmate who will fill out your team. (teams should be 2 people – other sizes require advance permission).

In a separately turned in document (one per team) please explain your plan for the project. Each plan may be brief (at this point) e.g. ~2 pages, but should include (at least) the following:

1.      Team name

2.      Team members

3.      Overall architecture for agent

4.      What kind of state your agent will keep (e.g. enemy location, model of enemy behavior, no state, ??) during a battle?

5.      What heuristic function(s) will you use and how will you compute them from the robocode statistics?

6.      What operator(s) will you use to modify agents?

7.      What kind of search strategy will you employ?
