Any Good Books on Chess Logarithms - 2007/01/12 02:19Interesting I was wondering whether there were any good books on Chess Logarithms. I would appreciate any good suggestions to this.
Thanking You. ---------
I have found it advisable not to give too much heed to what people say when I am trying to accomplish something of consequence. Invariably they proclaim it can't be done.

A nation which can prefer disgrace to danger is prepared for a master, and deserves one!
re:Any Good Books on Chess Logarithms - 2007/01/12 02:58No, Arfur is correct. Standard chess logarithms use the convention of prematurely implied powers. So, the logarithm of e4, "naturally" would be the natural logarithm of e^4.
ln(e^4) For one = 4

It is a poverty to decide that a child must die so that you may live as you wish.
re:Any Good Books on Chess Logarithms - 2007/01/12 03:19Another useful idea in chess logarithms is log(rank^file) = file * log(rank) So for 10-based logs on the c file, simplly calculate:
log [(3.00*10^8]^file) = file * 8.477
And realy, 4 significant digits is accurate enough all the way up to grandmaster level.. ---------

re:Any Good Books on Chess Logarithms - 2007/01/12 04:40Im sorry, but ... log (e4) Of course = log e + log 4. ---------
Victory belongs to the most persevering.
re:Any Good Books on Chess Logarithms - 2007/01/12 05:31I assumed Logarithm -> Algorithm. In the same way maybe yes, may effortlessly be no.... ---------
No matter what they're charging to get in, it's worth more to get out.
