As shown in studies of regional economic systems, combining shared knowledge from diverse actors (universities, companies, state actors) allows for rapid technological innovation.
The "horizontal" concept can extend beyond a simple row on a 3x3 board. The game can be generalized to an m,n,k-game, where players try to get marks in a row on an m x n board. This means you can create a 5x5 board (or larger) where you need to get 4 or 5 in a row to win. While the Minimax algorithm would work in theory, the game tree grows exponentially, making it computationally expensive. In these cases, more complex algorithms like Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS) are often used. iohorizontictactoeaix
