Engine Spreadsheet

Post by Kurt22 »

A few years ago, I remember coming across a spreadsheet (I think it was in google sheets, but possibly excel) that listed hundreds of engines, their authors, their (author's) country, and (potentially) their elo and programming language. Despite my best efforts, I haven't been able to find it again. Does anyone happen to know of this sheet? I would really like to have it, even if it's no longer being maintained.

It sounds like you are referring to Günther Simon's RWBC chronology.
