In Tree data structures, a leaf node is a node with no children.
Game trees
In game theory, a game tree is a directed graph whose nodes are positions in a game and whose edges are moves.
The number of [[leaf nodes in the complete game tree is the number of possible different ways the game can be played.
Game trees are important in artificial intelligence because one way to pick the best move in a game is to search the game tree using the minimax algorithm or its variants.
