Subject: C or C++ for Chess Programming?

Author: Severi Salminen

Hi!

Well, I have to say that yes, my assembly chess program played some chess (maybe
at 1200 ELO...), but it was indeed hard to write and debug. Now I'm asking how
does OOP (object oriented programming) suit for chess programming? Or should I
forget the C++ standard and stick to the plain old C? Are there any efficiency
aspects involved? I'm asking this because I'm quite new to OOP and would like to
start studying it only if it benefits chess programming somehow. I'll be using
the free Borland C++ 5.5

Thanks for any advice!
