Thanks, but I've already noticed. I just found funny that the scores in all the
engines stop precisely at 0.40, and not any other score. Surely, if you give
them a fixed time/depth to think they'll give different figures; however, in
this very particular examples, all of them end up with the same score. Maybe
Jorge did it on purpose (joking!)

Unless someone can "mathematically" prove that the score is eventually an
absolute figure in chess, the score is of course relative, and it is intimately
linked to the engine's style of playing.

Maybe because I've got a technical degree, I couldn't help noticing this
(irrelevant) coincidence with the scores.

Nothing serious anyway; just having fun!

Regards,

  Jaime
