| 4 | +**[CHEOPS](https://logological.org/cheops)** (CHEss OPponent |
| 5 | +Simulator) is a fully-functional chess program capable of |
| 6 | +human-vs-human, human-vs-computer, and computer-vs-computer play. It |
| 7 | +uses a 64-square linear array board representation. The game tree |
| 8 | +search is alpha–beta, and the static evaluation function considers |
| 9 | +material, mobility, and motif features. |
