This chess game uses algebraic chess notation. The files are lettered
|
|
"a" to "h" and the ranks are numbered 1 to 8. The lower left-hand corner
|
|
(from White's viewpoint) is a1.
|
|
|
|
Moves are entered as ff-tt (f=from, t=to), so to play the white king's
|
|
pawn up two squares you would enter E2-E4. You must enter your file
|
|
letters in upper case, while the computer will always use lower case.
|
|
|
|
To castle, enter only the king's move. The computer castles the same way.
|
|
To capture En Passant, enter your pawn's actual move.
|
|
|
|
Ply depth is the number of half-turns the computer looks ahead. For
|
|
example, with a ply depth of 3, the computer will consider
|
|
1. All of his possible moves
|
|
2. All of your responses to those moves.
|
|
3. All of his possible replies to your responses.
|
|
Start at ply depth 2 to get the feel for it.
|
|
|
|
A move of "R" will restart the game.
