Subject: A question about evaluation in programs

Author: Kim Roper Jensen

I wondered, if you have 2 chess programs, thats identical in every way, and elt
them play against each other for x number times ( x -> +oo ) then the score
should be approx. 50%

then we take program 1, and remove 1 thing in the evaluationcode and again let
them play against each other, what is the score then ??

And then remove one more thing again ??

I mean, if you just take one thing out of the eval. function will, the original
complete program just win a "little" more times, or what ??

I dont mean some bizarre endgame-code like how to mate with 3 knigths, but
doubling of pawns, etc.

I hope for some response, with regards

PS. i think ccc is one of the best forums for chess-programmers, keep it up :)
