You are right. The Neural Networks doesn't change through the GAMES: the single
reason is that the Neural Learning Process is too slow for live games. The
common way is to process the neural network traning-learning process as a batch
process.

By the way, the Alexs CD doesn't any program for the learning. According to the
Author, such tool would be very expensive. I don't agree because ChessterField
is a Neural Network  based Winboard Chess Engine, it's free and has a
program-utility for learning.

In any file. Even you can start it from the
