• create a directory called chess_ai_test
• copy in this javascript AI
  • https://github.com/glinscott/Garbochess-JS/blob/master/js/garbochess.js
• create an index.html
• create a function in there called suggestMoves(fen, time, n)
  • fen: a string containing a FEN, see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forsyth%E2%80%93Edwards_Notation
  • time: max time to spend finding moves
  • n: number of moves to suggest
  • return an array of n FEN strings representing the best n moves
• test this function in index.html with this FEN:
  • "rnbqkbnr/pppppppp/8/8/4P3/8/PPPP1PPP/RNBQKBNR b KQkq e3"
  • suggest 3 moves
• use drawChessBoard to show the original board, as well as the suggested moves
• submit pull request with screenshot of the test

to apply

include the following information in your cover letter

• github username
• what does "4P3" mean in the FEN above?
• how long will this task take?

I'm offering $40.00 on oDesk for someone to do this task: https://www.odesk.com/jobs/~01ae53b099ab693202

• copy index.html to index2.html
• goal: the pieces are transparent, and we want them to look solid
• strategy: modify drawChessBoard in the following way:
  • make it so that each unicode piece has another piece at exactly the same location, but "behind" it, from the opposite team (for example, white pieces should have a black piece behind them), and this piece should have its color set to "white".
• include a screenshot of the result in the pull request

• create index.html
• include jQuery from google's cdn
• add the following pseudocode to index.html:

function drawChessBoard(size) {
    var d = $('<div/>')
    var squareSize = size / 8

    draw an 8x8 grid of squares like a chess board,
        each square should be a div,
        the background colors should be set to "darkgrey" for the black squares,
        and "lightgrey" for the white squares,
        make sure that the lower-right square is white/"lightgrey"

    put unicode chess pieces on the board in the starting position,
        you can get the unicode values from here:
            http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chess_symbols_in_Unicode
        with white at the bottom,
        and make the pieces as big as they can be given the squareSize,
        and center all the pieces within their squares

    return d
}

$(function () {
    $('body').append(drawChessBoard(200))
})

take screenshot of the board
submit pull request with screenshot
