If the center cell is empty, and the first touching cell is empty, then the probability that the second touching square will also empty can be calculated. The probability that the first touching cell is also an empty cell is therefore: ( N - M - 1) / ( N - 1) (Where M is the total number of mines in the puzzle.) If there are N squares in the grid, then, because we've already exposed one cell, there are N - 1 squares left, and the number of empty squares (not mines) is N - M - 1 We now need to calculate the probability that the first touching square is also an empty space. We already know that the first click square is going to be an empty space (our freebie). To create an exposed blob, we need all the squares around the square we click to also be empty spaces. Let’s do the math … Probability of a blank space Using the criteria that we want the first click to be a click that Maximizes the chances that we click on a square entirely surrounded by other blank spaces, where is the best place to click? A Corner, an Edge, or a Middle square? Where is the best place for your first click?

No matter how ridiculously dense the board, if your first click would have landed you on a bomb, the program swaps this bomb with a blank space. Windows Minesweeper always allows makes your first click safe. If you click on a square that is entirely surrounded by safe areas, then minesweeper automatically ‘clicks’ on these areas and the region expands. When starting a game, ideally, what you’d like to see happen is to have a nice large blob open up so that you can walk around the edge, just like in the image below. This requires opening up the board as fast as possible. When you lose a coin flip, the result is that you’re usually very eager to start a new game and get invested into the next game very quickly. There’s no way to find any additional information to disambiguate. For example, in the image to the right, either of the top two squares could be a mine. It’s not hard to expose a situation where it is a coin toss as to the exact location of a mine. Minesweeper is a great little game and the only annoying part is that, sometimes, you have to guess in order to continue.

I’m sure everyone has wasted a few hours playing Minesweeper on earlier version of Windows.
