Subject: Question on History heuristic

Author: William Bryant

Date: 13:36:59 10/05/99


When updating the history for a move that has generated a cutoff,
what value to people use.

Do you use ply or some function of ply which means that the closer you are to
the leaves, the greater the value being used for updating?
ie: History[from][to] += ply;

Do you use depth or some function of depth which means the closer you are to the
root, the greater the value being used for updating?
ie: History[from][to] += ply;

Or are there other values being used.

Thank you in advance.
