Hi Dieter,

I have to correct myself again.

When I try to make a calculation:

Pawn constellations at 8 files:      15^8
placing white w Bishop in average:   16
placing white b Bishop in average:   16
placing black w Bishop in average:   15
placing black b Bishop in average:   15
placing 2 white Knights:             28*27/2
placing 2 black Knights:             26*25/2
placing 2 white Rooks:               24*23/2
placing 2 black Rooks:               22*21/2
placing white Queen:                 20
placing black Queen:                 19
placing white King:                  18
placing black King:                  17
side to move                         2
e.p. is possible or not              2
affected e.p. file                   8
castling rights (s+w)                4*4
--------------------------------------------
estimated possibilities              (2^13)*(15^10)*28!/16!

this is meaning about 105.76 bits.

Reinhard.
