P4wn
,no edit summary
It used a sort of [[Principal Variation Search|principal variation search]] and a [[Piece-Square Tables|piece-square table]] [[Oracle|oracle]].
In 2012 it was rewritten for clarity and for performance in modern JavaScript engines. It now uses a plain [[Alpha-Beta|alpha-beta]] search and more sophisticated piece-square tables.
p4wn plays by all the rules, though it never claims a [[Draw|draw]], just makes the offer and tries to avoid draws if it thinks it is winning. It likes to make rash [[Sacrifice|sacrifices ]] when ahead.
