Hi!

If you have a chess program that can solve the following 4 test positions,
please notify me.  If a program allows you to, maybe you can set the settings
chess program to solve these test positions, but it has to remain strong, like
in Chessmaster.  I wonder if solving the following is even possible.  Here are
the answers.  They are from games I found.  All of these moves are to sacrifice
material for positional gains.

Position Number One, White to move: b3

Position Number One, Black to move: Rb4

Position Number One, Black to move: Re6

Position Number One, Black to move: Rc4

1r3rk1/2qnppb1/b2p2pp/p1pP4/P1P5/3B1NP1/2QBPP1P/1R3RK1 w - - 0 1

3rq1k1/4rppp/2n3b1/pp2P3/2pP1QB1/P1P1R3/1B4PP/4R1K1 w - - 0 1

Thanks,
