XOR of random numbers is strong.

Generating those random numbers using addition
is generating too many collisions simply.

It will cause your zobrist key to have the effective strength of something much smaller. More like square root of it, so a 64 bits key will be having
effective strength of 32 bits.

Addition and OR is too similar to each other. You need some rotation/shifting as well and NOT multiplication as that's too slow simply.

Your golden post is a beginnersstatement basically as you want to combine add with or.

Stronger is combining + with rotating.

Did you read the code I posted?? I used XOR not OR. XOR and add work fine as far as I can see. You on the other hand used an OR and complained about hash collisions...


You responded to me:

"I didn't. HGM did use separate tables for piece and sq saving significantly on table size and used multiplication as well. But I suggested addition, try and beat that Smile As Don explained, we are now trying to avoid table look ups all in all, as the matter is settled..."

So you say only "addition" no nothing about XOR.

Don quotes the same thing also only 'addition'.
No nothing about XOR or any other instruction other than addition.

Just 'addition' is what you and Don mentionned in a reply to me.
Please read carefully what you write.
