Abstract:
In this paper we present a new evolutionary algorithm that finds the
hidden combination in the game of MasterMind by using the hints
provided by the other player. The evolutionary algorithm finds the
hidden combination in an optimal number of guesses, does not need a
lot of memory, and examines only a minimal part of the search
space. The algorithm is fast, and indeed plays in real time on the
World Wide Web.
