Struct myopic_brain::BitBoard

pub struct BitBoard(pub u64);

A bitboard is a value type wrapping a 64 bit integer which represents a set of squares on a chess board. Each bit is mapped to a particular square on the board, 0 -> H1, 1 -> G1,…, 8 -> H2,…, 63 -> A8. For example if we know a piece to reside on a particular square we can use a bitboard to to capture the available moves for that piece.

Implementations

impl BitBoard

pub fn contains(self, square: Square) -> bool

Check if this bitboard contains a particular square.

pub fn subsumes(self, other: BitBoard) -> bool

Check if this set is a superset of the other.

pub fn is_empty(self) -> bool

Check if this bitboard is empty, i.e contains no squares.

pub fn is_populated(self) -> bool

Check if this bitboard contains at least one square.

pub fn intersects(self, other: BitBoard) -> bool

Check if the intersection of this bitboard and the other is non-empty.

pub fn size(self) -> usize

Computes the number of squares in this bitboard using the popcount algorithm.

pub fn iter(self) -> impl Iterator<Item = Square>

pub fn first(self) -> Option<Square>

Finds the first square in this set if it is non-empty.

pub fn least_set_bit(self) -> BitBoard

Returns a bitboard with the least set bit of this bitboard or nothing if this bitboard is empty.

pub fn cord(source: Square, target: Square) -> BitBoard

Computes the ‘cord’ between two squares. Imagine a queen sat on the source square on and empty board. If the queen can move to the target square then this method returns the set of squares which the queen slides along to get to this target square (inclusive of both ends) otherwise the empty bitboard is returned.

pub const EMPTY: BitBoard

The empty bitboard (set of no squares).

pub const ALL: BitBoard

The complete bitboard (set of all squares).

pub const RANKS: [BitBoard; 8]

Array of bitboards represented the eight ranks, ordered 1 to 8.

pub const FILES: [BitBoard; 8]

Array of bitboards represented the eight files, ordered H to A.
