Go up one level in this thread


Well, that I'm not too sure.. I started to try and program around 1990 but ended
up getting into hardware more and it to me became more interesting. I'd like to
now but it seems like such a time consuming process of learning a programming
language and I wouldn't know where to start. I normally overclock, build
super-cooling systems for computers & mess with networking. I'll try and run it
by some people but I really don't think I'll find anything out.. was hoping
maybe some of you guys could figure something out. Also.. would there be any way
to MAKE a chess engine do floating-point type stuff so SIMD instructions can be
used? Like I said I don't know anything about programming so I'm just suggesting
the only thing that comes to mind at this point. Anyway, any idea's are
appreciated.
