Subject: General Position Evaluation Function

Author: Steve Maughan

Date: 00:37:39 12/20/98


Has anyone ever produced a list of the most important terms to be included in an
evaluation function?  I realise that I could get one from digging into source
code, but I was looking for something a little more digestible.

Any thoughts?

As a start I would list-

1 Material
2 Mobility
3 Past Pawns
4 Issolated Pawns
5 Double Pawns
6 Square of Pawns
7 Centre control
8 Rook on open file
9 Rook on 7th
10 Material pinned?
11 Backward pawns

Has anyone ranked a list of evaluation terms?

Any thoughts appreciated

Regards
