Of course, every method is a rotation, but the one I use works differently. It is extremely simple and does not need to scan the board. But I don't know if, for a 64-bit machine, it is faster than "rotated bitboards". I don't know if Bob has made some tests. I sent the source code to Bob, because I decided to make it Freeware. Bob asked me to publish it in the ICCA journal, but I had to stop writing. It takes me too much time. If there is enough interest here I will post it. Remember it is Freeware. Alessandro
