10 Questions
Define the state-space representation for the missionaries and cannibals problem.
The state includes the number of missionaries and cannibals on each side of the river, boat's location, and its capacity.
What is the initial state of the missionaries and cannibals problem?
3 missionaries, 3 cannibals on the original side, boat on the original side, and the boat empty (3,3,1).
Describe the goal state of the missionaries and cannibals problem.
3 missionaries, 3 cannibals on the opposite side, boat on the opposite side (0,0,0).
What is the path cost in the missionaries and cannibals problem?
Number of crossings made by the boat.
What are the operators in the missionaries and cannibals problem?
Putting missionary and cannibals in the boat such that missionaries cannot be outnumbered by cannibals, with one or two people in the boat.
How is the system state uniquely defined in the problem?
By the state of missionaries, cannibals, and the boat on the left bank.
What are the primary parameters for the system in the missionaries and cannibals problem?
The number of Missionaries (M), the number of Cannibals (C), and the capacity of the boat (B).
What does [m=3, c=3, b=1] represent in the problem?
It indicates there are 3 missionaries, 3 cannibals, and a one-person boat on the left bank.
What is the capacity of the boat in the problem?
At most two people.
How many crossings are required to reach the goal state in the problem?
9 crossings.
