Subject: My Gauntlet of Test Suites

Author: Joshua Lee

Date: 01:42:43 03/19/01


Awhile back i said i was going to run all the test sets with fritz well i have
quite a few and some that aren't in epd format yet so i have alot to be done.
I have to remove doubles from 1 file of about 6,000 positions then convert many
that are in something pre san or epd.... over a thousand of those.
I also have another file of about 1200 that i am working on now i should be done
with that in a day or two and then i can take those unsolved and put them in the
bigger file and continue removing doubles. i wish there were a faster way then
just searching for each position manually but chessbase lite deletes quite a few
that aren't doubles!!!!  if you have any ideas as to what i can do to remove
doubles faster by position i would love to hear it.


you are probably thinking i will never finish well i neglected to mention that i
have run quite a few of these that weren't solved in 27, 9, 5, and 3 min.

of the large file atleast 1000 are doubles but most likely more are because i
took all epd files from dan corbits site and put them together. i Didn't run
eco_pri or sec however because it contains so many positions that start at the
starting position i would be wasting my time but i may go through those manually
and check to see what i can do with them. These and the C.A.P positions are a
pain as there are so many and i don't see the relevence of them maybe someone
could fill me in (cap not eco the eco would test how well the program does in
the opening i suspect)

Since fritz doesn't do everything i thought i would use a more "Positional"
program for certain positions so i use gandalf 4.32h which is impressive ,
Phalanx and Hiarcs i can use if those aren't solved speaking of a position both
phalanx and gandalf solve this position in under a minute but hiarcs took 32
from the VA test set ... Chaos Vs Chess 4
