Go (board game): Encyclopedia - Xiangqi

blitz games:~10 minutes Xiangqi (Chinese: 象棋; Hanyu Pinyin: xiàngqí; Wade-Giles: hsiang-ch'i; ( listen)), is a two-player Chinese game in a family of strategic board games of which Western chess, Japanese shogi, and the more similar Korean janggi are also members. The character 象 xiàng here has the meaning "image" or "representational", hence Xiangqi can be literally translated as "representational chess". The game, however, is com ...

Go (board game): Encyclopedia II - Xiangqi - Rules of the game

Xiangqi - Board. Xiangqi is played on a board that is 9 lines wide by 10 lines long. In a manner similar to the game go, the pieces are played on the intersections, which are known as points. The vertical lines are known as files, while the horizontal lines are known as ranks. With a few awkward substitutions, it is possible to play this game using a standard chess set. Centered at the first through third ranks of the board is a square zone also mirrored in the opponent's territory. The three ...

Go (board game): Encyclopedia II - Computer go programming - Design philosophies

The only choice a program needs to make is where to place its next stone. However, this decision is made difficult by the wide range of impacts a single stone can have across the entire board, and the complex interactions various stones groups can have with each other. Various architectures have arisen for handing this problem. The most popular are using some form of tree search, the application of Monte-Carlo methods, the creation of knowledge-based systems, and the use of machine learning. Few programs use only one of these techniques exclusively; most combine portions of each into one synthetic system. ...

Go (board game): Encyclopedia II - Xiangqi - Notation

Xiangqi - Notational system 1. The book The Chess of China[1] describes a notational system of absolute positional references in which the ranks of the board are numbered 1 to 10 from closest to farthest away, followed by a digit 1 to 9 for files from right to left. Both values are relative to the moving player. Moves are then indicated as follows: [piece name] ([former rank][former file])-[new rank][new file] Thus, the most common opening in the game would be written as:

Go (board game): Encyclopedia II - Xiangqi - History

Chinese chess has a long history. Though its precise origins have not yet been definitely confirmed, our earliest indications reveal the game may have been played as early as the 4th century BC, by Meng Changjun for example. (See chess in early literature or timeline of chess.) Judging by its rules, we can conclude that the origin of Chinese chess was apparently closely related to military strategists in ancient China. The word xiàngqí's meaning "figure game" can also be treated as meaning "constellation game". It is believed ...

Go (board game): Encyclopedia II - Xiangqi - Gameplay and strategy

Xiangqi plays faster than Western chess for several reasons. First, the barrier of pawns is reduced dramatically. Second, the cannons jump to capture, making them a long-range threat early in the game. In addition, since the general is confined to only moving within the palace, it can be checkmated more easily unless it is protected by other pieces. While in Western chess, the battle between opposing sides is concentrated in the middle few rows for the bulk of the game, this is not the case in xiangqi. The board is bigger than the Wes ...

Go (board game): Encyclopedia II - Computer go programming - State representation

A problem that all Go programs must solve is how to represent the current state of the game. For programs that use extensive searching techniques, this representation needs to be copied and modified for each new hypothetical move considered. This need places the additional constraint that the representation should either be small enough to be copied quickly or flexible enough that a move can be made and undone easily. The most direct way of representing a board is as a 1 or 2-dimensional array, where each space in the array represents ...

Go (board game): Encyclopedia II - Computer go programming - Language choice

Several languages have been used to make successful computer Go playing software, and each language has it's own advantages and disadvantages. C and C++ are generally considered to result in faster executables than many other languages, and for this reason programs which perform extensive searches, or have other large performance bottlenecks will often be programmed in C or C++. Examples include GnuGo, Many Faces of Go, and Go++. Java as well has been a popular choice for Go software as it provided speeds close to that of C and C++, b ...

Go (board game): Encyclopedia II - Xiangqi - Xiangqi tournaments and leagues

In Europe and Asia there are significantly more xiangqi leagues and clubs than in the United States. Each European nation generally has its own governing league; for example, in Britain xiangqi is regulated by the United Kingdom Chinese Chess Association. Asian countries also have nationwide leagues, such as the Malaysia Chinese Chess Association in Malaysia. In addition, there are also several international federations and tournaments. For example, the Chinese Xiangqi Association hosts several tournaments every year, including the Yi ...

Go (board game): Encyclopedia II - Culture of China - Arts

Chinese art has varied throughout its ancient history, divided into periods by the ruling dynasties of China and changing technology, as well as influenced by great philosophers, teachers and religion. Early forms of art in China were made from pottery and jade in the Neolithic period, to which was added bronze in the Shang Dynasty. The Shang are most remembered for their bronze casting, noted for its clarity of detail. Early Chinese music and poetry was influenced by the Book of Songs, Confucius and the Chinese poet and statesman Qu Yuan. Early Chinese m ...

Go (board game): Encyclopedia II - Invented game - Classification of games

Games are sometimes classified into three categories, according to their origin and process of evolution, which are Developed games. Most traditional and popular card games are of this sort. These games are not owned by any inventor or organization, but rather evolve in the public domain. They are often descendants of other pre-existing card games. Hearts, Euchre, and Poker are all developed card games. Almost invariantly, a solitary "inventor" of such a game cannot be identified. Go (board game) and Chess are also mostly ...
