Shredder is very good at learning. Take a chess position and analyze it. Shut down shredder and go to bed. Then next day analyze it again. You will see that Shredder now understands the postion much better and will also get much deeper, and faster. I think it a very good idea to store every pv node you ever analyze with your chess engine, along with predicted move, expected response, depth of analysis and score. These analysis information bits can be stored in signature files according to the chessmen on the board (due to symmetry, you can get at least 4:1 compression even with pawns on the board). Les Fernandez has some intersting VB code to show how these reflections can be utilized. Learing is primarily of value in the openings. The probability of hitting the same move at ply 65 are just about nil, most of the time.
