What do you mean by state space representation of a problem? Illustrate how you can represent following water jug problem as a state space search: There are two jugs (without any measuring marks on them) of 4 and 3 liters capacity, respectively. There is a tap of water to fill the jugs. The objective is to fill the 4-liter jug with exactly 2 liter of water.

Consider the game tree of Fig. 1 in which the static scores are from first player's point 07 of view. Suppose the first player is maximizing player. Applying mini-max search, show the backed-up values in the tree. What move will the MAX choose? If the nodes are expanded from left to right, what nodes would not be visited using alpha-beta pruning.
