Perft FEN data

Post by sje » Sun Nov 18, 2012 11:56 am

I have set up some pages with perft FEN data. These can be useful for those testing perft programs.

Each record in each file consists of the six fields of a FEN position, a draft (depth in ply), and the count of distinct move paths.

For perft(10):
The 20 draft 9 positions: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/31633927/Perft/Perft10/draft9
The 400 draft 8 positions: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/31633927/Perft/Perft10/draft8

For perft(11):
The 20 draft 10 positions: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/31633927/Perft/Perft11/draft10
The 400 draft 9 positions: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/31633927/Perft/Perft11/draft9

For perft(12):
The 20 draft 11 positions: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/31633927/Perft/Perft12/draft11
The 400 draft 10 positions: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/31633927/Perft/Perft12/draft10

For perft(13):
The 20 draft 12 positions: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/31633927/Perft/Perft13/draft12
The 400 draft 11 positions: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/31633927/Perft/Perft13/draft11

Also, the Big Summary: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/31633927/Perft/InitialPosition

The above data will be out there for a while, but not forever. Grab it while you can.

If you would like a permanent place to host it I will gladly do so on my Olympus.com site.

Perhaps I should just ask, mind or like if I would mirror?

You are welcome to host a copy of the data at your site.

Perhaps the chess programming wiki could host a copy as well.

I hope that those doing perft(14) will provide a copy of their results in the same format.
