As someone who had no idea on chess, I needed a partner to learn it. What better partner than the intelligent computer? So, I taught computer to play the chess and in the same way learnt it with it.
This project is built on the python programming language, which is an interpreted high-level general-purpose programming language used to develop a chess system based on “Adversarial Search and Games.” This system uses alpha-beta pruning which is a standard minimax algorithm.
