Introduction

Chess is not a game of chance; it is based solely on tactics and strategy. Nevertheless, the chess game is so complex that not even the best players can consider all contingencies: although only 64 squares and the chess set of 32 pieces are on the board, the number of possible games that can be played far exceeds the number of atoms in the universe.
