I suppose so yes. I was just 'putting it out there' to see if it was
interesting/useful to anyone. No doubt there are many Python features I
could use to improve on this. First thing that occurred to me on
deciding to try Python was the idea of Generator functions to enumerate
all the possible moves of a Chess game, and that 'yield' would make the
prog relatively compact.
I wish Shedskin could cope with them ! PyPy runs it OK.
