<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20161012202911/http://chess-tuition.com/awesome.html Awesome Chess Program, Chess Tuition (2016)] ([https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wayback_Machine Wayback Machine])</ref>, written in [[Cpp|C++]].
Bills Bare Bones Chess utilizes a one-dimensional [[8x8 Board|8x8 board]], and applies [[Alpha-Beta|alpha-beta]] search with [[Transposition Table|transposition table]], [[Check Extensions|check extensions]], [[Quiescence Search|capture search]] and [[History Heuristic|history heuristic]] inside the [[Iterative Deepening|iterative deepening]] loop.
The simple [[Evaluation|evaluation]] relies on [[Material|material]], [[Piece-Square Tables|piece-square tables]] and [[Pawn Structure|pawn structure]] scores cached in a [[Pawn Hash Table|pawn hash table]].
