After watching The Queen's Gambit on Netflix I got interested in chess. I played a bit against computer programs and it made me curious about writing my own chess engine. This repository and a series of small videos I upload to Youtube after each milestone are documenting my progress.

b7942c1View on GitHubVersion 0.6.1 improves mate finding capabilities: Now encoding the mate distance into the checkmate score instead of counting moves in the PV. Shortest mates are preferred over late ones by search. Search doesn't terminate automatically when a mate is found. When the last iteration resulted in a mate the use of null move pruning is vastly reduced. This allows MMC to find the best move (shortest mate) in many more mate puzzles.
