It is picking the moves from a list. It would be totally different if the computer had created the book based on its own "thinking". And a human has to make a "decision" whether the moves "e4 e5 Nf3 Nc6 Bb5" are best or not, while a computer selects a move without thinking. :-) Regards Dave >You seem to say that with humans there are two phases: 1. read moves from books >2. recall them from their memory.
