Your information is sorely lacking. Mark has published clear proof that rybka 1.6.1 has huge chunks of Crafty code. And I am talking evaluation code, not some parsing code. A function EvaluateWinner() was copied 100% unchanged. He copied other pieces of code. Some of which even had bugs. He copied ...

When i saw this match of a computer with an 8 bit processor beat a computer of a 16 bit processor was in a 6 game match, the 8 bit computer won 4 and the other 2 were drawn. I don't think this is a random luck. Best Ricardo Possibly not. If program A is far better than program B, then A should win ...
