5,8-173

Jim Gillespie, Lawrence Radiation Laboratory, Berkeley,

TIC 5/8 plays a master game of TIC-TAC-TOE on the display
scope. The program can be reset to a learning configuration
by hitting two keys on the Teletype, and will begin to learn
winning strategies from each game it loses until it has become
a master player again. The program makes use of the program
interrupt facility and makes necessary changes for a PDP-5 or
PDP-8.
