Absolute Zero is a bitboard chess engine written in C#. It was developed from scratch to learn about chess programming and game tree searching. By default it runs with its own GUI but it supports the UCI protocol when given the -u command-line parameter. While in UCI/command-line mode it also accepts commands such as perft and divide. General features: - Runs with own GUI by default - Runs in UCI/command-line mode with -u argument - Provides analysis mode with multi PV in the GUI - Accepts perft and divide commands in command-line mode - Bitboard chess engine that runs in 64-bit when possible. Search features: - Principal variation search - Iterative deepening - Transposition table - Null move heuristic - Killer move heuristic - MVV/LVA heuristic - Futility pruning - Late move reductions - Quiescence search with SEE - Draw detection - Mate distance pruning - Time control heuristics - Multi PV. Evaluation features: - Phase interpolation - Piece-square tables - Mobility evaluation - Pawn structure evaluation - Simple capture evaluation.
