A game called Computer Go is defined. Computer Go differs from the game of Japanese Go only in that certain imprecisely defined conventions have been replaced by precise rules. Some general theorems on Computer Go are given, as well as a scheme for analysing the game with the aid of a computer. Several reduced versions of Computer Go were analysed, and the resultant strategies are briefly described.
