Hello! Please give definition of expression: "Move generator". I found already few times that my understanding of this expression is not usual. By reading one recent message here in Chess Club, that speak about "move generator", I just wanted to become sure about this expression. For the sake of "maybe needed", will say what I thought "move generator" is in reality. Move generator is the part of the code that generate all moves for given position. Usually (at least in my program) this part generate all legal moves for given position and make initial alignment of moves in its chain. To generate the initial 20 moves in the game (just as example) move generator should be called once to produce them all. Thanks for your explantion! Leonid.
