Go up one level in this thread
Dieter,
Given that we have the same definition I'm very impressed of how you can produce
such a strong program with such lousy numbers!
I gave a very sloppy definition of 1FH. The real one is better described as:
100 x (number_of_1stFH)/(number_of_FH) where number_of_1stFH is the number of
Fail Hihgs with the first move in the node and number_of_FH is total number of
Fail High nodes.
I'm sorry if this is the reason.
/Peter
