Dear Ed

Could you briefly clarify the points below - just Yes/No will do if you like.

Please, Ed, what sort of positions?  Basically problem-type positions, or what?

>Different moves  :  48

I can put several meanings here.

Does it mean that in 349 out of (506-48) positions (or 506 positions), the time
taken to make the move by R10+Anti-GM(Strong)was either >110% or <90% of the
time taken by R9?  At what depth (or other?) setting?

This 349 sounds like quite a significant number anyway!

>Total time Rebel9   : 02:04:57
>Total time Rebel10  : 03:00:10
>Total percent       : -31%

Does this mean in this test set, at (presumably) a fixed depth setting,
R10+Anti-GM(Strong) was 31% slower than R9? (I know Strong Anti-GM setting is
not as wise as SMART).

>Score differences

Are these absolute (i.e. unsigned) differences - surely R10+Anti-GM(Off) can
sometimes give lower evaluations at fixed depth than R9?

You wrote below:

>These figures are without the anti-GM options

which is why I believe these differences are between R9 and R10+Anti-GM(Off).

i.e. total 178.

How many showed 0.00 difference, please?  Was it (506-48-178), or (506-178)?

Sorry to ask so many questions, but I am sure many are very interested.

Kind regards
