(1) Segment evaluation is the basis of point evaluation in
Connect6.
(2) For a standard game board of Connect6, the variety of
segment styles is limited. After classification, all possible
segments and their style indices should be saved to a data
file. This permade file helps the program to save much time
consumed by segment style analyzing.
(3) The idea of branch value makes point evaluation
accurately and game state recovering easily.
This method of point evaluation is adopted by Consau.
Experiments shows that, Consau is more powerful than it's
earlier versions. In the 6th National Computer Game
Championship held on 2012-8-24, Consau came in first in
Connect6 competition.
