Computer Strategies for Solitaire Yahtzee

Solitaire Yahtzee has been solved completely. However, the optimal strategy is not one a human could practically use, and for computer play it requires either a very large database or significant CPU time. We present some refinements to the techniques used to solve solitaire Yahtzee and give a method for analyzing other solitaire strategies and give some examples of this analysis for some non-optimal strategies, including some produced by evolutionary algorithms
