Tic-tac-toe (or “Noughts and Crosses”) is a game simple enough to implement in any computer system: indeed it’s often used in beginner’s programming courses. A more challenging project ...

With that mapping in place, the droplet was able to identify further handwritten digits. The droplets then faced off against an ideal, standard computer in games of tic-tac-toe.

This allows the MAYA-II to play a complete game of Tic-Tac-Toe against a human opponent, and apparently nearly always win.

A grid of 9 wells corresponds to the squares on a tic-tac-toe grid A computer that uses strands of DNA to perform calculations has mastered the game tic-tac-toe. MAYA-II, developed by researchers ...

A simple computer made of DNA strands in test tubes can now play a complete game of tic-tac-toe--and will beat or draw you every time. The result demonstrates a new level of complexity in DNA ...
