New version of Nawito chess engine

[ernesto]

Greetings friends

Here I leave the version 1812 of the Nawito chess engine. I recommend reading the readme.txt file where some of the new changes and their origin are explained.

You can find it in:

Hello Ernesto,

Thank you for the new Cuban engine. I am looking forward to testing it.

What are random1 and random2 from and what do they accomplish? I have found identical files in BSC, Myrddin and EveAnn.

Hello Ernesto,

It is not new and It is a (still close) derivate of Danasah. (the origin is quite hidden in the readme - it was formally legalized a while ago)
(I find it a bit disappointing that neither Pedro Castro nor Danasah is still mentioned in the sources, despite using the search and big parts of the eval, which is not mentioned in the readme)

Thanks for the information. I have never heard of the engine before. I'm glad to read in the first referenced post that the engine is OK.

hello Gabor Szots

I do not know how the files "random1.bin" and "random2.bin" work, but
which are mandatory for the use of Rebel-ProDeo's opening books.

hello Guenther

Thanks for your comment. I completely agree with your words the name of
Danasah, Pedro Castro and others should be reflected in the parts in which they are used or influenced.
I will speed up the launch of the next version to 2 months to correct these errors and test
the new system of the opening book (with its learning based on Ant Colony Algorithm).

Is there enough own code to justify it is a different engine ? Or is it cut and paste.
