# chess engine in python 

Engine is written in python and uses the minimax algorithm with alpha-beta pruning to find the best move.

## note

engine can not compete with the best engines in the world, it's elo is around 1600. Python is not the best language for chess engines. It's slow and not optimized. 

## machine learning module.

I am currently working on model that will evaluate position on [machineLearning branch](https://github.com/michalskibinski109/chessEngine/tree/machineLearning)

## Usage

run `api.py` to start server with interactive chess board.

change depth of engine to set its strength.

- 4 ~ 0.5s per move

- 5 ~ 5s per move (Optimal)

- 6 ~ 50s per move
