Module pleco::core[−][src]

Contains various components and structures supporting the creation of a chessboard. This includes SQ, BitBoard, Player, Piece, GenTypes, Rank, and File.

Modules

bit_twiddles	Collection of useful functions oriented around modifying singular bits of integer types. You will rarely need to interact with this module directly unless you need functions involving the manipulation of bits.
bitboard	Module containing the `BitBoard` and associated functions / constants.
masks	Masks and various other constants.
mono_traits	Traits and Dummy Types defined for various Enum types. Shouldn't be used in place of their enum representations.
move_list	Contains the `MoveList` & `ScoreMoveList` structures, akin to a `Vec<BitMove>` but faster for our purposes.
piece_move	Module for the implementation and definition of a move to be played.
score	Primitives for determining the value / score of a specific location.
sq	Contains the representation of a chessboard's square.

Enums

CastleType	Types of Castling available to a player.
File	Enum for the Files of a Chessboard.
GenTypes	Types of move generating options.
Piece	All possible Types of Pieces on a chessboard, for both colors.
PieceType	All possible Types of Pieces on a chessboard.
Player	Enum to represent the Players White & Black.
Rank	Enum for the Ranks of a Chessboard.

Constants

ALL_PIECE_TYPES	Array of all possible pieces, indexed by their enum value.
ALL_PLAYERS	Array of both players, indexed by their enum value.

Statics

ALL_FILES	Array of all `Files`s, indexed by their enum value.
ALL_RANKS	Array of all `Rank`s, indexed by their enum value.

Functions

file_bb	For whatever file the bit (inner value of a `SQ`) is, returns the corresponding file as a u64.
file_idx_of_sq	For whatever file the bit (inner value of a `SQ`) is, returns the corresponding `File` index.
file_of_sq	For whatever file the bit (inner value of a `SQ`) is, returns the corresponding `File`.
rank_bb	For whatever rank the bit (inner value of a `SQ`) is, returns the corresponding rank as a u64.
rank_idx_of_sq	For whatever rank the bit (inner value of a `SQ`) is, returns the corresponding `Rank` index.
rank_of_sq	For whatever rank the bit (inner value of a `SQ`) is, returns the corresponding `Rank`.
u64_to_u8	Converts a singular bit of a u64 to it's index in the u64. If there's more than one bit in the u64, this will be done for the least significant bit.
u8_to_u64	Given a square (u8) that is valid, returns the bitboard representation of that square.
