Greetings to everybody! :) Probably your question is if "branching factor" is all the time the same, never mind between what plys it was caluculated? If this is the question, my response will be yes, in general. At least, this is what I found by trying the branching factor for the best games that I bought. All the time games were asked to search the position by "brute force". One additional finding - all those games had practically identical "branching factor". Branching factor. If plys five take 1 second and plys six 8 second, branching factor will be 8. Leonid.
