Subject: Draw by Repetition Rules

Author: Nathan Thom

Hi again, this is a simple question yet I find that I dont actually know the
answer :) What exactly constitutes a draw by repetition? Is the following
definition strict enough?

"If a position repeats three times with the same side to move, a draw can be
claimed."

Does this mean any number of non-captures and non-pawn moves may be made between
these repeating positions?
