Book Reviews of Programming Game AI by Example
Book Review: A must have.
Summary: 5 Stars
The book uses source code (C++) and UML diagrams to explain AI techniques that can be found in various games in a simple yet precise manner. Each chapter has a practical Visual C++ project, which can be used as a framework to expand on the ideas presented. I thoroughly recommend this book, not only for AI programmers, but programmers in general, as it re-inforces good software engineering practices in an industry that largely discards them.Overall, an excellent book. This is how AI should be taught at University.
