Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.
This book examines modern artificial intelligence to display how it
may be applied to computer games. It spans the divide that exists
between the academic research community working with advanced
artificial intelligence and the games programming community which
must create and release new and interesting games.
Mulla Nasrudin, called Hodja Nasrudin in India and Turkey, is the
major comic figure in Islamic folklore. Both 'mulla' and 'hodja'
mean master, with the connotation teacher; Nasrudin, if he ever
existed, was an educated man. The tales of Nasrudin were never told
by any great Sufi masters, but somehow the common man began to
identify with him. And as various modern writers have pointed out,
the tales contain both spiritual symbolism and the sort of
paradoxical narrative that can break down our habitual view of
reality (rather like the Zen koan) and re-form it on a higher
level. This work is aimed at using a collection of what
superficially can be considered jokes for education and development
of insight, and at the same time bringing two vastly different
Eastern and Western cultures to a better mutual understanding.
