Manually tuned evaluation

[Ferdy]

There is an article regarding rebel program by Ed. I am influenced by this writing as I develop Deuterium.

Also I'm a bit confused with the fact that author of 3000+ engine is taking his time to play around with my 1600 engine)
Just curious why are you interested?

I want to learn more on javascript

There are much stronger javascript engines, for instance:
Lozza: https://github.com/op12no2/lozza

Learning from the basic implementation is more useful to me.

I'm flattered)
Thanks for your interest.

To add my two kopecks, automated testing is kind of cheating for me. The same goes for self-trained neural networks. But can you expect anything other from an archaeopteryx like me, who thinks drag-and-dropping pieces on the board is an inferior option to selecting two squares separately.

OK, a program with zero lines has the largest N, but I am excluding degenerate cases.

Not necessarily true. Because a program with zero lines code would have 0 ELO, so we have:

Code: Select all

N = Elo/L => 0 divided by 0

and this is mostly not infinity while it's ok to say that 1 divided by 0 equals infinity.

Let's take your formular:

Code: Select all

N = Elo/L

then:

Code: Select all

N(0, 0) =     lim      Elo/L
          (Elo->0,L->0)

Now the result (if any) depends a lot on the functions for Elo and L.
N could be 5, too

Busted, and I as a math major.
As a TA, I graded papers for 1200 first year calculus students.
I do repent in dust and ashes.

Not sure what did you mean and is this post addressed to, but
fortunately I came up with my very first Texel's tuning implementation!

Oh, I didn't want to give any offence. Of course you are aware of this as a math major.
But it's really not a well known fact.(*)

In this case I would guess that

Code: Select all

 N(0, 0) =     lim      Elo/L  =    lim    Elo'/L'   =  0/1   =   0
          (Elo->0,L->0)        (Elo->0,L->0)

using L'Hôpital's rule, assuming that each line of a program has not more than 120 characters, because this means, that dElo/dL = 0 in the neighbourhood of 0 as you need quite a number of lines of code to have an ELO at all.

(*): When a I was about about 12 years old, I was saying in school that 0/0 could be theoretically anything (including 5). This was long before even having heard about L'Hôpital.
All other pupils including the elders were mocking me. I am very sure that they still don't get it.
