minmaxalgo

This document presents a Python implementation of the Connect Four game using the Minimax algorithm for AI decision-making. It defines a ConnectFour class that manages the game board, checks for valid moves, and determines winning conditions. The game alternates between a human player and an AI opponent, which uses the Minimax algorithm with alpha-beta pruning to select optimal moves.
