What you know is mainly unknown, that's true.

When it is about Bruce I thought that his webpages could be a good starting
point for you though, especially his stuff on min-max and alpha-beta, and
considered to give a link. I'll do it now:
http://www.seanet.com/~brucemo/topics/topics.htm . His picture is simplified
because it's static, but you should really try to understand it at first,
because that's a basic scheme all major programs use, and it is different from
looking up things already played in a database or the like.

Actually Bruce also managed to program one of the world's best chessprograms and
won a few world championships with it, just thought you might like to know :).
