I have a strong feeling +that this would be a lot faster than the current +implementation which has a very functional pro- +gramming flavour --- this was very helpful during +the development, but it has a tendency to be a +bit inefficient. + + +Test Suite +---------- +(Proposal date: 03-Jan-2003.) +It would be a very good idea to create a test +suite created using normal testing techniques. +Areas of test should include: + +* resolving ambiguous moves, i.e., ensuring +that moves like Rad1 moves the right rook. + +* all legal SAN moves are accepted. + + |
