Subject: How Many Lines of Code in Source for Chess Engine?

Author: Bob Durrett

If it takes one year to write and debug 25,000 lines of code, [in Rookie 2],
then how much more in modern successful chess engines?  I assume the GUI is not
so bad.

If the answer comes out to be 50,000 or 100,000 lines of code, then this may be
a lifetime project?

What am I missing?

Just Xerox Crafty and rename it?  [ A joke ]
