Ok, very interesting information... Its a very astronomical number!

In The next 50 years, (2050) i think, that a computer will play probably a
perfect game in some kind of positions... there are some prediction about this?

Can the computer play in the future almost perfect chess?  Maybe 100 years more?
or more???

I did post a follow up, on the possibilty that " Quantum Computers " may be able
to handle such tremendous amounts of data.
However it's speculative at present. We may see such supercomputers capable of
dealing with " All Possible Positions " in the next 20 to 50 years.
Chess is a game, but also a puzzle and I believe with the right type of
technology that puzzle can and almost certainly will be solved.
