A capturing move into a surrounded point is rejected as suicide · case 03

Taking the last liberty of an enclosing chain is refused although it would capture.

Member previewVariant 3 · 3 implementations · 8 checks per implementation

Case contract

Input [board, colour, row, col]. Occupied point -> ["illegal", "occupied"]. Otherwise place the stone, remove every adjacent opponent chain left without liberties, then reject the move as ["illegal", "suicide"] only if the placed chain still has no liberty. Return [new_board, captured_stone_count].

Why this case matters

Go servers and scoring tools compute this value automatically; a wrong answer changes a game result.
