Subject: Value of a pawn

Author: Howard Exner

Does anyone know how the different programs rate the value of a pawn?
I think someone (probably Ed Schroder) said that Rebel's score
is about 0.75.

Does it make sense to compare eval scores across programs? ie:"this
program does better here because of its +4.55 eval versus this
other program at +3.62". In reality for program X, 4.55 might be 4 pawns
while program Y at 3.62 could be 5 pawns. Is this right?
