Gigatron Hackers

Very nice!

Nice!
Zip attached

Would be interesting to know how to assemble the whole thing?

best, Peter

Nice

Why do you use lha? ZIP is the de facto standard archive format on all platforms to exchange file archives.

Very nice!
Many thanks for this.

best, Peter

ok.
Did that. In small sdl2 emu, I am waiting now app. 50min for any computer answer. In real HW, with 128kd7 rom, I am waiting now app. 30min.
No computer answer? I compiled again for PC i5 3k. Runs fine and answer is instandly there.

??

best, Peter

Thx. On PC with i5 3GHz, the answer is instantly. On Gigatron emulation, I had to wait probably "hours" (broken up - hat to go).
I will test on real hardware the next days.

best, Peter

Thanks! I just did the required changes for modern C++ compiler. But now I replaced all occurrences of 1e5 with 2e4, and 1e9 with 3e4 and it runs fine now. Now we just need to figure out, how to have computer play black

best, Peter

See here: https://nanochess.org/chess.html https://nanochess.org/faq.html Just wanted to see, if glcc would compile it and if it would even run ;-) It compiles and runs - but: It always says 'illegal' to any input - something is wrong at reading and compute input? Since computer playing is activated...

Another nice contest could be:
"Size coding contest = create interesting/astonishing graphic effects with small piece of coding"
