Go up one level in this thread


Bauer = "Farmer" = pawn
Springer = "Jumper" = knight
Laeufer = "Runner" = bishop
Turm = "Tower" = rook
Dame = "Lady" = queen
Koenig = "King" = king

IMO, the German terms make more sense. =)

It would be interesting to find positions where the top programs all find the
correct move immediately, but material-only evaluation does not find it ever.

Unfortunately, I don't know an easy way to determine that top programs find a
particular move immediately.
