Go up one level in this thread


I haven't done any tests but intuatively I'd go for 64 bit.  The number of
unique positions in checkers is not that much different to chess (maybe 10^80 as
opposed to 10^120) and the number of positions searched per sec is higher than
chess.  Remember that a 64 bit signature is 2^32 time safer.
