Junior showed some knowledge that other programs do not have in the games
against Rebel and against Tiger.

I think that Junior did the bigger change relative to other programs.
The change was sometimes negative but I do not think that Junior did a bad
result.

If you count points you can consider Junior's result as bad but if you look at
the games you can see that Junior(london) may be ranked better in the interest
to buy it.

My opinion is that if you buy one program than Shredder is best but if you buy 2
programs than the team Shredder5 and Junior(london) is best.
