splits-lua

A lua program that lets you play a variant of splits/chopsticks against a simple AI.

Installation

if you have prefixell installed, run:

prefixell pkg add gh:TBApknoob12MC/splits-lua -g

then you can just type splits-lua in terminal.

or else, clone this repo:

git clone https://TBApknoob12MC/splits-lua.git

you will need to open this dir and then type lua splits.lua instead of just splits-lua.

Usage

To play a game against the built-in model:

splits-lua self

The pretrained model provided in this repo trained by playing against itself, 100000 times.

If you want to train a model yourselves,do this:

splits-lua train <modelname>.lua <no_of_games: optional, default 10000>

Then, to play against your model:

splits-lua <modelname>.lua

The Game

rules for this splits variant:

• Numbers over 5 rolls over (5 exactly to kill a hand).
• No transfers like 1,3 to 2,2.
• Dividing (splitting) has some conditions:
  • Only one live hand.
  • The live hand has an even no.
  • 50/50 only, like 0,4 to 2,2 ; no uneven splits like 0,4 to 1,3.
  • splitting doesn't end the turn (split and strike).

Command language:

• Attack: A<your hand><AI's hand>
• Split: S<half value><AI's hand>

where your hands' and AI's hands' left and right are denoted as 1 and 2.

And half value is 1 if ylsplit from 2 or 2 if split from 4.
