Subject: A question about the source code of crafty

Is there an explanation for the meaning of every variable in the source code of
crafty?

I looked in evaluate.c
I understand that the variable TotalBlackPieces is not the number of black
pieces(otherwise always TotalBlackPieces<20 and there is no need for a command
with if TotalBlackPieces<20 but I do not understand what is the meaning of this
variable.

It can be the value of the pieces but if this is the case than crafty cannot
recognize a draw for insufficient material with KNNvK or KNNv KN.
