The Iocaine Powder Strategy in RoShamBo

Iocaine Powder is a heuristically designed compilation of strategies and meta-strategies which took first place in Darse Billings’ excellent First International RoShamBo Programming Competition. To take advantage of this (assumed) predictability, at every round Iocaine Powder measures how well each of the strategies under consideration (six for every predictive algorithm!) Then, to actually choose a move, Iocaine Powder simply picks the strategy variant with the highest score to date.
