Subject: Attack Tables

Author: Artem Pyatakov

I have decided to keep track of attack tables in my program, because I think
they will save computation time in the eval.

My question now is this, given the experience of most people in this group, what
is the most useful info to keep in the attack table?

Should I just keep the number of times that white is attacking the square and
black is attacking the square? Or is it very useful to keep track of what actual
pieces (and on what position on board) are attacking the square on both sides?

Or is it some other kind of attack info?

Thanks for all of your responses.
