Hi Chess friends,
I have a simple question concerning the quiescence search. Standar alpha-beta
usualy starts with something like
if (depthh == 0)
return evaluate (position)
most qsearches i have seen do not have thsi kind of ply depth termination. Now
i wonder how can a q search ever terminate? I have seen a question like this
before, but could some one please explain? What i'am afraid off is that my
qsearch will go on and on evaluating a line of play in wich white takes all the
pieces at the kingside, while black does the same on the queen side.
Thanks in advance.
