The '''Kotok-McCarthy-Program''',
=<span id="TypeB"></span>Type B=
The program Kotok-McCarthy was a selective [[Type B Strategy|Shannon Type B]]kind of program. It considered only a few plausible moves as function of increasing [[Ply|ply:]]
{4, 3, 2, 2, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0}
and therefor had some tactical flaws.{{Quote Greenblatt on Kotok-McCarthy}}
