The human mind is unable to analyze a chess position as a whole, and so strategy and tactics are important, because they simplify the study of the chess. We are still very far away from analyse a position in a global way, I believe that the programmers still need references of tactical order as of strategic order, but we need understand that they have tools that cannot be rejected, processing speed each time bigger and great capacity of storage of data, that can be used for openings, midlegames and endgames. Which the most important for them? With the word the programmers. Best regards, Paulo Soares, from Brazil
