Trees are used in many applications in computer science, robotics, and game design. One common application is for representing the possible moves in a game or search problem. Imagine that you were exploring the space that a player (character or robot) could move through. On each move, the player would change position (and possibl… text/html 2011-06-20T03:03:05+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://www.cs.vassar.edu/people/mlsmith/vss?rev=1308538985&do=diff Vassar Science Scholars Lecture/Lab Saturday, March 26, 2011 9:30am--12pm Sci Vis Lab, 3rd Floor Mudd Chemistry WeScheme: from Algebra to Animation We will explore selected parts of the Scheme programming language using WeScheme, a browser-- text/html 2013-05-23T14:24:46+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://www.cs.vassar.edu/people/priestdo/wearables/top?rev=1369319086&do=diff What am I wearing?
