A new version of my EGTB generator
Posted: Wed Oct 25, 2006 5:08 pm
I wanted to inform who could be interested that I put in my site (http://users.iol.it/rigel_g/) a new version of my generator gafs, where I eliminated some little errors and improved the program.
Even if gafs is in executable format only for 32 or 64 bits Unix/Linux OS, I put also an object file (gafslib.obj) that should permit the use of my TBs, once generated, from a chess program written under Windows. If someone will try to use this file, I would be interested for me to know if he finds problems to link and to use.
In my site there is also a new version of gafsoc, a program for evaluating the dimension of a single TB or of a group of TBs until 9 men.
Another program (gafsdim) gives the number of positions until 32 man, so it is possible to have an idea of the occupations of all the future TBs and of the total number of positions in chess.
This program is also present in source format (but comments are only in Italian). I tried to write it in a style easy to be deciphered in order to permit to all interested people to understand the code and eventually improve the
program. It requests the use of the gmp (GNU multiple precision) library because the program utilizes very long integers to perform the calculation.
