This Python +extension is a port of Tesauro's algorithm. + +* Usage + +The extension is named =pubeval= and can be imported by using =import pubeval= +after installation. + +The only method defined by this extension is =pubeval.eval(race, board)=. The +arguments to this method matches the arguments required by the original +=pubeval= function, i.e. the method takes as arguments a boolean specifying +whether the algorithm is in a non-contact "race" situation and a tuple with 28 +integer entries representing the board in the same format as the original +=pubeval.c=. +
