TRON Tournament is based upon the excellent TRON Challenge, <a href="http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/cody/problems/327-tron-challenge">Cody 327</a>, created by Alfonso Nieto-Castanon.Host Bot: Fixed Pattern CCW - WeakThe Passing criteria is changed to Wins - Ties/4 > Losses.The 100 Matches will be "even" as Host and Player will play the same 50 paired starting positions.The Host TRON-bot will be provided in the function template. It is highly recommend to run the initial TRON bot so that the player can copy the Test Suite for his bot creation. The Test Suite code has beautiful graphics created by Alfonso.The TRON arena is fixed at 50x50.Please visit the Cody 327 link for any info I may miss.Board: 50x50Wall: -3 (Rows 1 and 50, Columns 1 and 50)Player: 1Host: 2Player created wall: -1Host created wall: -2Empty Spaces: 0Players start on either row 2 or column 2Players move simultaneously and thus a crash to the same spot is a tie.Running into a wall first is a loss.Simultaneous wall crashing is a tie.Given the board with its coverage make a Move, "NESW"."N" idx-1; "E" idx+50, "S" idx+1, and "W" is idx-50.Input: BoardOutput: (string 1 character) eg "N"Score: Perfect Score is 0 points (200-Wins*2-Ties/2), 100 L scores 200The Test Suite has some very nice methods to implement checks.Bot 010 is Rick's CCW Fixed Pattern Bot - Weak
