or try game learning machine

Pick a simple game maybe enlarged tic-tac-toe (3 dimensional, or more than 9 boxes) or maybe a 4x4 checker game. Devise a learning machine that rewards a path to winning by incrementing numbers in link(s) and punishes a path to losing by decrementing numbers in link(s). Make it play both as the first mover and the second mover.
Play it against itself and remember the link numbers. It should learn over a short time how to be a "perfect" player. This suggests a tree of board statuses and link numbers. It also suggests a data base containing a representation of the tree. Vary the reward/punishment algorithms to make it learn faster or learn "better"
