After the game ends, a result is calculated. Any stones that opponent could capture are calculated as captured.
Players points are the sum of following:
* The territory he has surrounded,
* Captured and capturable opponents' stones.
White usually gets some extra compensation for blacks' right to start the game. This is called komi.
Hactar uses Japanese rules for calculating result.
