I see, interesting. Have to think about. Of course you should also consider this one already with compensation of the saced pawn: [D]k5K1/8/8/8/1pPp4/8/2P4P/8 b - - 0 1 > >c4 bxc4 d3 or c4 dxc4 b3 > >[D]k5K1/8/8/2pp4/1p6/1P6/2P4P/8 b - - 0 1 > >black does not need to sacrific to generate a passed pawn(again I see no way to >define exactly which pawn is the candidate to be passed pawn for evaluation). > One has to detect pawn groups (forgotten the special term) like 2:1 or 3:2. Currently i only consider 2:1 majorities. But it would be nice to evaluate other majorities as well as pawn breaks at least in pawn-endings. Gerd >Uri
