Exercise - Efficiency Training

This exercise is to ensure you can play as efficiently as possible when the situation calls for it, as well as have a good understanding of the state of your hand at any given moment. This is from Week 1.

Using the Mahjong Efficiency Trainer, play through a hand. At each step, calculate the shanten and ukeire of your resulting hand after making the best discard.

To ensure the exercise has a useful length, you can set the "minimum starting hand shanten" setting to 3 or 4. The exercise is completed when you go through a hand from start to finish while calculating correctly each time.

To make the exercise harder, you can turn on the "simulate other players discarding tiles" option. This will add more to track with regards to the ukeire, and be closer to a real-game situation.
