New version chess engine for Android: Viridithas 8.1.0

Image
  Chess engine: Viridithas Rating CEDR=3088 Features General Search Techniques Alpha-Beta The central algorithm used to determine the values of positions (and by extension, which moves to make) is called alpha-beta pruning. It is a version of the minimax algorithm that maintains bounds on the score to prune parts of the search tree. Alpha-Beta prunes more of the tree when better moves are tried first, so it relies on good move ordering to search efficiently. Principal Variation Search As we hope that the first move tried is the best one (and it often is), all that must be done for the rest of the moves is to prove that they are worse than the first one. As such, every move after the first is searched with a "zero window" (i.e. beta is brought down to a single centipawn above alpha) in order to prove that it is not the best move. If a move proves to be better, a somewhat costly re-search must be done, but this improves search efficiency on average. Iterative Deepening In order...
