A friend of mine who has a rating of USCF 2345 asked me that in order for your favorite chess program to do a 9 ply search, how many moves or positions are there on the chess board that it would need to search in order to accomplish this goal? I hope i`am getting my point across to what i`am trying to ask for! It just seems that the numbers to do such a task would be in the billions for a complete search of 9 ply! Plus, they talk alot about how many Nodes per second a program can do and is there a formula to find out how many moves or positions your favorite program can do in relation to the KN/s? Thankyou in advance for any help in explaining this, Best regards, Terry
