Information About

Chess Engine




Most chess engines use the common approach of attempting all possible moves from a given position and then choosing the best one with the help of a search (mostly Alpha-beta Pruning , which is an improvement over the Minimax algorithm) and Evaluation Function .

At the moment, Rybka is the strongest chess engine and is leading all rating lists by 50-100 ELO points.
