A transposition table is a data structure used in the field of computer science, particularly in artificial intelligence and game-playing algorithms, to optimize the performance of search algorithms such as those used in chess engines, Go programs, and other combinatorial games. The main purpose of a transposition table is to store previously computed results of game positions to avoid redundant calculations and speed up the search process. ### How Transposition Tables Work 1.
