An engine Russell is one that examines the chess board according to its weights
and measures and then selects the best move according to its calculations, not a
program that goes through a list of moves made by past masters and chooses one
that they made. The following is not a chess engine in my opinion but just an
automated chess move encylopedia with not chess knowledge required.
