The '''influence quantity''' of pieces is defined by their number of unique [[Moves|moves]] with respect to their [[Origin Square|from]]- and [[Target Square|to-square]] coordinates, the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardinality cardinality] of the set of all possible moves, or [[Mobility#TheValueofReachingaSquare|potential, global]] [[Mobility|mobility]] <ref>[[Dan Heisman]] ('''1990, 1999, 2010, 2015''').''[http://www.danheisman.com/elements-of-positional-evaluation.html The Positional Elements of Chess]''. Russell Enterprises</ref>. It might be used to enumerate and [[Encoding Moves|encode]] all those moves, i.e. associating each move, per piece and in total, with a unique number for [[Hash Table#MinimalPerfectHashing|minimal perfect hashing]] opposed to intermittent [[Butterfly Boards|Butterfly boards]].

For instance a [[Pawn|pawn]] (including [[Promotions|promotions]]) has 48 (8*6) single pushes and 84 (2*7*6) [[Captures|captures]], plus 8 possible double pushes on each [[Files|file]], which results in a influence quantity of 140 of either white or black pawns.The influence quantities of all pieces are divisible by four times seven (28), excluding pawn and [[King|king]] even by sixteen times seven (112). While obviously the number of [[Queen|queen]] quantities is the sum of [[Rook|rook]]- and [[Bishop|bishop]] quantities, it is at the first glance somehow surprising that the rook quantity is the sum of bishop- and [[Knight|knight]] quantities.

=Moves per Origin=
Following table gives the distinct number of moves per piece and [[Origin Square|origin square]] and their sums from the lower left quarter of a [[Chessboard|board]] (a1-d4) and in total for the whole board:

<span id="PointValues"></span>
=Quantities and Point Values=
The mentioned move quantities of pawns and pieces only roughly correlate with their [[Point Value|point values]] since the static enumeration of all moves with distinct coordinates does not take into account the reachability of all origin-squares. Only queen and rook can reach any square in at least two moves on the otherwise empty board. Bishop quantities cover all light and dark colored from-squares. While a single bishop is bounded to one square color, its individual influence quantity is therefor divided by two. Also, pawns can only move forward and can not reach each enumerated origin square, which decreases their individual influence accordantly. King and knights can reach every square on the otherwise empty board, but may take more time with respect to [[Distance|distance]] and [[Knight-Distance|knight-distance]].

=Divisibility by Seven=
All influence quantities are divisible by four times seven, thanks to the double pushes. For a rook it is quite obvious, since each of the 64 from squares covers one rank and file each with seven squares left.
