'''PeSTO's Evaluation Function''',<br/>
a [[Piece-Square Tables|Piece-Square Tables Only]] evaluation function by [[Ronald Friederich]] as tried in his chess engine [[RofChade]] <ref>[http://www.talkchess.com/forum3/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=68311&start=19 Re: New uci engine: Rofchade] by [[Ronald Friederich]], [[CCC]], Auguat 28, 2018</ref> further used in his experimental chess engine [[PeSTO]].
It performs a [[Tapered Eval|tapered evalevaluation]] to interpolate by current [[Game Phases|game stage]] between [[Piece-Square Tables|piece-sq square tables]] values for [[Opening|opening]] and [[Endgame|endgame]],optimized by [[Texel's Tuning Method|Texel's tuning method]]. Pesto's Evaluation Function is intended to replace [[Tomasz Michniewski|Tomasz Michniewski's]] [[Simplified Evaluation Function]], and was successfully applied in several engines.
[[Maksim Korzh]] used and adapted Pesto's Evaluation Function in [[Wukong JS]] along with his own Texel's tuning trials <ref>[http://www.talkchess.com/forum3/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=76238&start=15 Re: Help with Texel's tuning] by [[Maksim Korzh]], [[CCC]], January 07, 2021</ref>.

for (p = PAWN, pc = WHITE_PAWN; p <= KING; pc += 2, p++) {
for (sq = 0; sq < 64; sq++) {
mg_table[pc] [sq] = mg_value[p] + mg_pesto_table[p][sq]; eg_table[pc] [sq] = eg_value[p] + eg_pesto_table[p][sq]; mg_table[pc+1][sq] = -mg_value[p] - + mg_pesto_table[p][FLIP(sq)]; eg_table[pc+1][sq] = -eg_value[p] - + eg_pesto_table[p][FLIP(sq)];
