This things reads more like a documentation page (minus the commentary often seen in code) rather than an article. Also, I fail to see news sources (etc.) that demonstrate the notability of this function. Silcox (talk) 04:43, 9 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. The article was hi-jacked on Dec 7; the content was completely replaced with someone's program. Please look at an article's history when you find something like this. The function is covered in books on artificial intelligence. I will restore the original content. StarryGrandma (talk) 06:59, 9 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy keep per StarryGrandma's observation that essentially, the wrong article was nominated. On a side note, the restored version is almost certainly a notable topic; a quick perusal of G scholar shows very wide use of this. 35.139.154.158 (talk) 07:30, 9 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
