About

  Our submission is written in Clojure, and our build produces a .jar file that

  requires only a JDK installation.

  The strategy we implemented is simple. We claim available rivers in the

  following order of preference:

      1) The river connects to a mine.

      2) The river connects to a river we've already claimed.

  The time we had available to work on our submission was limited to one day of

  remote pair-programming, and so we didn't have the time to develop further.

  However, when our time was up we had some ideas about how we would proceed.

  We decided that the next level of sophistication would be the implementation

  of a scoring function. We believe use of the Loom (1) library would make this

  straightforward.

  Once we had a scoring function, we could assess available rivers in terms of

  how they could improve our score.

  For any strategies more involved than this, we thought we'd first need to

  develop a gameplay visualization. A visualization would help us understand

  better our opponents play, and to develop better search algorithms.
