Hi, I know book learning is important in order to improve opening quality but I am wondering I just have to store position and weighted score. I think it is not a good idea. Let us suppose my program plays 10 games against, say, Fritz 5, it looses 10-0, so for each position I decrease score, and now my program plays 10 games against super dummy 1.0 and I wins 10-0. So I increase score. What is the conclusion ? If my program plays 6 games with e4 and wins 3 games, I don't change the score for this position however I am not sure this move is so good. I say e4 but it is the same thing for deeper moves. What are exactly the advantages of book learning and how exactly code the book learning in order to improve openings. I think position and score are not enough. Ideas ? mph
