Currently the library contains well over 150 strategies including classics
such as Tit-For-Tat (TFT) and Win-Stay-Lose-Shift (WSLS), recent variants
including zero-determinant strategies, and a variety of novel strategies
including several machine-learning based strategies. Many strategies
are parameterized, allowing for infinitely-many variations. We welcome
new strategies and additions from the literature: see [here](https://github.com/Axelrod-Python/Axelrod/issues/379)
for a list of known strategies and sources.

The library emphasizes reproducibility and validity. The current test suite
covers more than 99% of all code in the library, with many portions
covered many times over, including [randomly generated tests](https://github.com/HypothesisWorks/hypothesis-python)
that are created and run regularly.
