Go up one level in this thread
of course also saving the bestscore assignment in that case:
if (val > bestscore)
{
if( val >= beta )
return val; // Actually goto return-sequence.
bestscore = val;
if(val > alpha)
alpha = val;
}
or what about improving branch-prediction in some way:
if( val >= beta )
return val; // Actually goto return-sequence.
if (val > bestscore)
{ // most likely not taken
bestscore = val;
if(val > alpha)
alpha = val;
}
