Below is an example of a board state showing the probabilities of x winning in each cell. Is there a mathematical way to calculating the probabilities? I understand that the bottom left corner for x is 1 because the game will end but for the other cells i tried combinatorics/permutations but am getting no where unless I draw every possibility.
|X|0.45|0.4|
|:-|:-|:-|
|**O**|**X**|**0.1**|
|**O**|**0.25**|**1**|
In: Mathematics
Probability = Winning Outcomes/Total Outcomes
So for each board state, there are N number of sequences that can happen from there, and X number of ones that result in a win.
So if a cell has 0.45 it means that “45% of all possible sequences where this is the next move result in a win”
