+// The class Engine produces moves from a Game object through calls to the
+// function ComputeMove().
+//
+// First of all: this is meant to be a simple example of a game playing
+// program. Not everything is done in the most clever way, particularly not
+// the way the moves are searched, but it is hopefully made in a way that makes
+// it easy to understand. The function ComputeMove2() that does all the work
+// is actually not much more than a hundred lines. Much could be done to
+// make the search faster though, I'm perfectly aware of that. Feel free
+// to experiment.
+//
+// The method used to generate the moves is called minimax tree search with
+// alpha-beta pruning to a fixed depth. In short this means that all possible
+// moves a predefined number of moves ahead are either searched or refuted
+// with a method called alpha-beta pruning. A more thorough explanation of
+// this method could be found at the world wide web at http:
+// //yoda.cis.temple.edu:8080/UGAIWWW/lectures96/search/minimax/alpha-beta.html
+// at the time this was written. Searching for "minimax" would also point
+// you to information on this subject. It is probably possible to understand
+// this method by reading the source code though, it is not that complicated.
+//
+// At every leaf node at the search tree, the resulting position is evaluated.
+// Two things are considered when evaluating a position: the number of pieces
+// of each color and at which squares the pieces are located. Pieces at the
+// corners are valuable and give a high value, and having pieces at squares
+// next to a corner is not very good and they give a lower value. In the
+// beginning of a game it is more important to have pieces on "good" squares,
+// but towards the end the total number of pieces of each color is given a
+// higher weight. Other things, like how many legal moves that can be made in a
+// position, and the number of pieces that can never be turned would probably
+// make the program stronger if they were considered in evaluating a position,
+// but that would make things more complicated (this was meant to be very
+// simple example) and would also slow down computation (considerably?).
+//
+// The member m_board[10][10]) holds the current position during the
+// computation. It is initiated at the start of ComputeMove() and
+// every move that is made during the search is made on this board. It should
+// be noted that 1 to 8 is used for the actual board, but 0 and 9 can be
+// used too (they are always empty). This is practical when turning pieces
+// when moves are made on the board. Every piece that is put on the board
+// or turned is saved in the stack m_squarestack (see class SquareStack) so
+// every move can easily be reversed after the search in a node is completed.
+//
+// The member m_bc_board[][] holds board control values for each square
+// and is initiated by a call to the function private void SetupBcBoard()
+// from Engines constructor. It is used in evaluation of positions except
+// when the game tree is searched all the way to the end of the game.
+//
+// The two members m_coord_bit[9][9] and m_neighbor_bits[9][9] are used to
+// speed up the tree search. This goes against the principle of keeping things
+// simple, but to understand the program you do not need to understand them
+// at all. They are there to make it possible to throw away moves where
+// the piece that is played is not adjacent to a piece of opposite color
+// at an early stage (because they could never be legal). It should be
+// pointed out that not all moves that pass this test are legal, there will
+// just be fewer moves that have to be tested in a more time consuming way.
+//
+// There are also two other members that should be mentioned: Score m_score
+// and Score m_bc_score. They hold the number of pieces of each color and
+// the sum of the board control values for each color during the search
+// (this is faster than counting at every leaf node).
+//
+
+// The classes SquareStackEntry and SquareStack implement a
+// stack that is used by Engine to store pieces that are turned during
+// searching (see ComputeMove()).
+//
+// The class MoveAndValue is used by Engine to store all possible moves
+// at the first level and the values that were calculated for them.
+// This makes it possible to select a random move among those with equal
+// or nearly equal value after the search is completed.
