CMU Chess Program, an early chess program developed by Joseph S. Rubenfeld and Robert W. Walker for the CDC G-21 system at Carnegie Mellon University, which was written in ALGOL 20, not supporting recursion. In a letter to Allen Newell and Herbert Simon, after losing from Mac Hack VI on a PDP-10 on April 20, 1967, L. Stephen Coles mentioned a program by Rubenfeld for the G-21, which could make no more than a few moves a day due to teletype restrictions. The listing of the CMU Chess Program is available via the CIT G-21 site.
