Shusaku number

Shusaku number

The Shusaku number represents the "distance" between a Go player and Honinbo Shusaku, measured in Go opponents.

A person's Shusaku number can be determined, as follows:
* Shusaku himself has the Shusaku number 0.
* Any other Go player has the number 1 + the smallest Shusaku number of the player's opponents (provided at least one opponent has a Shusaku number). For example, if a player has played Shusaku himself, that player would have a Shusaku number of 1.
* For all other people, the Shusaku number is undefined.
