Do a Google search on phrases (with the quotation marks) such as:
"weakly solved"
"strongly solved"
"ultra-weakly solved"
"ultra-strongly solved"
...then come back and post an answer that DOESN'T suck.
Bob's answer was fine. Some of us actually have to work for a
living. We don't all have time to do 5 hours of research before
posting.

If you don't have time to get true information (five minutes tops using the
search terms above), you should simply STFU rather than posting false information.
"Suppose that it has been discovered that with a certain opening play that
the first player can force a win" is a description of weakly solved. "if
a different opening play is forced" is a description of strongly solved.
If you two dim bulbs would spend five minutes doing the search I suggested,
this would not confuse you so.
