shakmaty-syzygy

A Rust library to probe Syzygy endgame tablebases, based on shakmaty.

Build Status crates.io docs.rs

Syzygy tables allow optimal play under the 50-move rule. Tables are available for positions with up to 6 (and experimentally 7) pieces.

Example

use shakmaty::Chess;
use shakmaty::fen::Fen;
use shakmaty_syzygy::{Tablebase, Wdl, Dtz, Syzygy};

let mut tables = Tablebase::new();
tables.add_directory("tables/regular")?;

let pos: Chess = "8/8/8/8/B7/N7/K2k4/8 b - - 0 1"
    .parse::<Fen>()?
    .position()?;

let wdl = tables.probe_wdl(&pos)?;
assert_eq!(wdl, Wdl::Loss);

let dtz = tables.probe_dtz(&pos)?;
assert_eq!(dtz, Dtz(-59));
