But the eval and >search don't have that characteristic. but of course it is unfair. There are competitions with chess programs, and if one author let say that copies that code or writes the exact equivalent code, he loses his own pride but wins time and effort. I personally don't like to say "there is little reason to worry about those parts being copied", as if it were something normal, many won't like that I suposse, because what i said, or because considering the chess program a pure personal jewel, even including the parts you mention, or whatever. sólo un estropajo sucio que tuvo la suerte de encarnar un día en un ser humano.
