Go up one level in this thread



Typically, in the generation of an EGT, the 'draws' are those 'unbroken'
positions that have not been resolved as wins for one side or the other.

'Draws' are not given a depth.

However, 'draws' can be partitioned into 'draws requiring conversion' and 'the
rest'.  Trivially, many draws require the material-down 'Black' to capture a
White piece immediately .. or some similar tactic.

Such draws can be given a 'DTC' or 'DTZ' depth by a technique similar to the
technique used to find wins.  This has not so far been done.

Maybe this is relevant.
