An alternative to IID

[OliverBr]

Anyway, even there are some questions without answer, there is an ELO gain of about ~25.
=> OliThink 5.6.6 has been released.

Oh, it's even stronger than I thought, On a very fast time control the gain is about 40 ELO.

OliThink's concept is a most minimalistic code. (~1600 lines of code, ~140 lines of eval-function, just mobility). Now there is less code, a much simpler approach and more ELO.

Thanks @Ed Schröder.
