Subject: "El Ajedristica" Programming Challenge

Author: Ricardo Gibert

Date: 16:55:20 04/25/05

In 1890 Luis Torres y Quevedo built a machine that automatically played a king
and rook endgame against king from any position. Not bad for 115 years ago!

The challenge I propose is to duplicate this result in software in as succinct a
manner as possible. The only restricion is that is must always find a way a
mate, but not necessarily do so optimally.

Any takers?
