| Jan 28, 2016 at 3:08 | comment | added | CMPSoares | If I'm not in error you're referring to the TV show Person of interest, right? What they mean is by foreseeing the next possible moves you have to create a decision tree to calculate all possibilities. When Harold refers to the 'second move' he means looking two moves ahead (your's and the opponent's; in computer science this is 2th level of depth of the tree). So without doing the calculations I belief it might be correct. At least it must be a huge number though. | |

It is remarkably dangerous to "round up" to infinity. Generally speaking, when they make the mistake of doing so, someone rapidly breaks their algorithm by showing that it wasn't actually an infinity that they were dealing with. In encryption, it is not unheard of to have algorithms that seemed "unbreakable until heat death of the universe" which were broken due to a few tricks which decreased the problem size by 10^80 or more | |
