Mostly out of my own interest; i have no aspirations of entering it in computer chess championship tournaments. Most move generation, a good chunk of the eval, and some of the U/I is currently only about 120 lines of code. Of course, you could argue that LISP makes it more or less clear depending on you love of parenthesis. :) > >As for prng, the Mersenne Twister has some incredibly good properties as far as >randomness is concerned. Hm.. I looked it up. Sounds good; i might put it in later. dave
