If A) more knowledge is more code lines with knowledege or B) it means more variety of positions where the program pcik a move not on the ground of sheer search but deciding accortding a positional, knowledable criteria. Clearly are different things and even they can go on oposite directions. A bad programmer can put into the program every conceivable knowledge and still produces a nasty thing. And vice versa, as Morshch do, he can put just a bare minimun and get a really outstanding program. The question is and ever will be: which is the relevant minimum knowledge to multiply the maximal search capabilities for the best overall result. This is like the alchemic formula of the problem. fernando
