Subject: Max positional score difference

Author: Nagendra Singh Tomar

Hi All,
       I think this question has been asked in different forms in this forum but
I was less than satisfied, so I am putting the question once more.

How much can be the maximum allowable difference in positional score of the two
sides ?

i.e assuming BLACK during its search hits a position in the leaf and calls
evaluate, evaluate() finds that black's pieces are wonderfully placed and whites
pieces are pathetically placed but still black is say a bishop down. Is it
sensible to return a +ve eval score in this.
I mean can the maximum allowable difference in positional score  be as high as a
bishop or knight's score.

Comments ?
