We propose and develop an algorithm of this game by incorporating various possible logical tactics and strategies for a possible computer software of this game. Since this game involves various logical mind games, playing this game can improve our way of thinking, strategies, tricks and other skills related to mind game. In this play there is not the case of draw which means one has to win over the other at the end of the game. This game could become one of most interesting indoor national or international game.展开更多

Dong PraYa Yen-KhaoYai Forest Complex has been a UNESCO natural world heritage site since 2007, but little is known about its plant community. Our study aims to identify each plant community within the world heritage area and calculate its potential for carbon content. We determine both the relationship between forest type and both physio-chemical soil properties and climate change impact. We employed allometric equations to calculate aboveground biomass and both cluster analysis and canonical correspondence analysis (CCA) to examine the relationship between forest type and physiochemical soil properties. An equation for each physical parameter was used to predict the forest model. The climate scenario under A2 and B2 was applied to calculate future predominant forest types. Our results reveal that the forest ecosystems at Tab Lan (TL) have the highest species count (332 species) followed by Pang Srida (PD), KhaoYai (KY), Dong Yai (DY), and Tapraya (TY), with 293, 271, 169, and 99 species, respectively. We found KY to have the highest recorded carbon storage value at 2507.6 tC/ha followed by TL, PD, TY, and DY (1613.8, 1269.1, 844 and 810.7 tC/ha, respectively). Cluster analysis results indicated that the dominant species in each forest type is different. Moreover, CCA revealed that soil organic matter (SOM) and soil acid-base indicators are the best parameters to establish correlation for each forest type. Based on our results, future climate predictions show a negative impact on evergreen forests, but a positive one on deciduous ones.展开更多

It seemsJapan is finally playing its exchange rate card after fail-ing to revive its econmy through interest rate cuts andexpanding govemment expenditure. Do you think this"exchange rate card" can be the savior for Japan’seconomy? Is the yen depreciation the best choice to pre-vent its economy from falling further?展开更多

Since November 2022, however, as the Fed slowed its tightening pace and as the Bank of Japan(BoJ)tweaked its monetary policy, the yen has regained some of the ground it lost. Overall, the yen has been characterized by strong volatility. The primary factor driving the fluctuations of the yen in the short term is the widening United States–Japan interest rate differential. From a mid-to-long-term perspective, the underlying reason behind the exchange rate movements of the yen is the BoJ’s monetary policy and the Japanese economy’s structural changes.The fluctuations of the yen are a mixed blessing for the Japanese economy;in the long run, however, they will do more harm than good. As for the world economy, turbulent yen fluctuations may trigger a fresh round of currency competition and disrupt the financial markets. Looking ahead, for long-term healthy economic development, Japan needs to cut down on its exchange rate dependence and restructure and upgrade its economy.展开更多
