Chess Engines

Chess engines are advanced computer programs designed to analyze and play chess at a high level. They evaluate millions of potential moves per second using complex algorithms and extensive databases of past games. Unlike human players, chess engines consider all possible outcomes to identify the best moves, making them invaluable tools for studying and preparing for matches. Popular chess engines like Stockfish and AlphaZero have significantly influenced both amateur and professional play, as well as the broader understanding of chess strategies and tactics. They are often used for analysis, training, and even providing real-time assistance during games.
