Chess Query Language (CQL) was designed by Gady Costeff and Lewis Stiller to specifically search for games, problems and studies that match certain themes.

Previous columns have dealt with using the chess engine to annotate games in Chess Assistant 10, but this month we’ll be focusing on the do-it-yourself variety.

In the two previous columns we examined infinite analysis with Chess Assistant 10. Infinite analysis is a very useful tool, but it is best suited for analysis of a limited number of positions. One of the drawbacks of infinite analysis is that as soon as you want to examine more than one position it turns into a manual process where you have to make the decision when a position has been analyzed deeply enough and then manually move on to the next position and so on. For the improving player it is more efficient and useful to have all phases and every move of the game analyzed automatically. Each tournament game you play should be subjected to such analysis and stored for future reference after trying to learn as much as possible from the game and its analysis. Just remember that engine analysis is not a replacement for your own analysis. Always start by entering your own thoughts about the game and only then analyze it with Chess Assistant. |
