title: Transposition tables?
body: <p>I'm using Minimax to make the computer play connect 6. I am also using Alpha-Beta pruning to speed up the algorithm.</p>
  
  <p>I wanna add in a transposition table to make the algorithm even faster. I have absolutely no experience with them.</p>
  
  <p>Could someone explain the basics of transposition tables, and how they would apply to a game like Connect 6? A link to a useful resource would be fine.</p>
  
  <p>I"m familiar with hash tables.</p>
  
  <p>What I found:</p>
  
  <p>1) <a href="https://www.chessprogramming.org/Transposition_Table" rel="noreferrer">https://www.chessprogramming.org/Transposition_Table</a></p>
  
  <p>The link gives a good explanation of transposition tables but completely focuses on chess so its hard to figure out how transposition tables work independently from chess.</p>
