That's the chess engine that most GNU chess programs use. http://www.gnu.org/software/chess/ > It's written in haskell, A bit like Scheme then. "In applications where performance is required at any cost, or when the goal is detailed tuning of a low-level algorithm, an imperative language like C would probably be a better choice than Haskell, exactly because it provides more intimate control over the exact way in which the computation is carried out." http://www.haskell.org/aboutHaskell.html Which explains nicely why gnuchess - the engine code - is in C. :-) Does your program allow users to play against the computer? If it does, it really ought to see about tying into gnuchess. -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.dcglug.org.uk/ http://www.nosoftwarepatents.com/ http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/
