Description

#Chess uses an 8x8 board maintained by a negamax alpha-beta search with transposition table inside an iterative deepening loop. Evaluation is primarily due to material balance (MB) - a positional bonus based on piece-square tables might be skipped by lazy evaluation if MB is at least 50 centipawns outside the alpha-beta window. #Chess features a peft and divide command 2.
