More seriously, what I’m trying to do is improve my understanding of state spaces. Below’s yet another visualization of the first four stages of tic-tac-toe, trying to get at how the states reconverge.
You can see the structure even better without the board visualizations, but if you do it’s just a graph and you no longer know what it is that you’re seeing. More thought is required on how to visualize this (and the real problems I’m tackling behind this, for my day job).
