I would start out like this: I love playing chess. Is it a game? I would spin around this word and from this picture in which it seems I’m talking about a game, that I’m talking about a “story“, that, as the picture on the cover of the book shows, ‘I go up to artificial intelligence, so discussed in recent years, in which in 1996, the greatest chess player of the world, he said, Garry Kasparov enters into a controversy with the so-called Deep Blue. It is said that: “20 years ago, world champion Garry Kasparov took over IBM and supercomputer Deep Blue in the final battle between man and machine. This was a monumental moment in the history of chess and has been closely watched around the world.
This match was played by chess players, scientists, computer experts and the general public. At the time of the match, Kasparov was a world champion. He was put to the ultimate test, carrying the weight of humanity on his shoulders, heading into this iconic chess battle In 1997 he tried to take revenge “Kasparov was shocked by Deep Blue’s game in this chess match. His eyes turned on Kasparov to see if he could recover the shocking loss in his fight with Deep Blue. The intellect of mankind has been a heavy burden for Kasparov, but being a world champion, Kasparov has come to the challenge!”
After the first two rounds of battles, peace was restored and game three was drawn. Other and other rounds followed and Kasparov takes the initiative and does not give up until the computer is forced to resign. Kasparov is stuck on his game plan and keeps a darker position against Deep Blue. This was the most one-sided game of the match, and Kasparov manages to put the final nail in Deep Blue’s coffin, proving that the man was still king of the royal game.
Chess is an intellectual sport. Stimulates cognitive ability and exercises logical thinking. That’s what wikipedia says. It is called the game of the mind. But what do we say, what do those who have tried and those who have succeeded. But in all this very important is that it teaches you to lose, but in fact you do not lose, you obviously win, but what do you gain?
Chess education has long-term results in the development of intelligence, it improves the confidence in their own forces and at the same time increases the graduation rate of exams and, last but not least, in the development of civic spirit.
An article caught my attention the other day, namely: “A entered Medicine on a place reserved for Olympians, without examination, due to the performances obtained at chess competitions, and, and now he is teaching the sport of mind to the children from the primary school where he was, in turn, a student “ I think he is also a good student, a doctor. Confident is without just and can. He thinks he wants to do good, even if sometimes he gets stuck. Do not let beat.
It is said that the game of chess is not learned in 5 minutes. It’s not like a card game or a formula, or like a light poem that you can memorize. “Mutations of each piece are learned quickly, but the strategies of the game are mastered in time, with a lot of exercise, patience and willpower.” Chess has been shown to stimulate the desire for self-improvement. This can also be seen outside the game. I have been watching for a while a student who since he started playing chess, has started to take better grades. But not necessarily the notes mean everything, but the desire to improve, to do good, to help, ..even if this is not always a visible, surface, one, because a chess player is not very extroverted. After a six-seven-hour match he learned to stay inside and think without asking for help.
It is said that chess appeared in India 2,000 years ago. Legend has it that the man who invented chess would have been wise named Sissa ben Dahir. It was then called chaturanga, and it was intended to please the Indian king Shirham. Sissa was rewarded for his work of playing chess with the king, making him even happy. In gratitude, the king asked Sissa to choose her own reward. Sissa asked for a grain of wheat for the first chessboard box, two for the second, four for the third, eight for the fourth and so on, in geometric progression (mathematical operation that is studied in the X-Class preceded by arithmetic progression) to the 64th box. The king was amused by his request in its modest way, but he could never reward him, because this would have meant giving him the impossible, reaching a huge number.
According to some statistics there are around 600,000,000 chess players ]in the world And I would be one of them.
“The number of possible individual chess games is much higher than the number of electrons in the universe. The number of electrons is estimated at about 10^79, while the number of individual chess games is estimated at 10^120”.Distinct fields, mathematics and chess have a number of surprising similarities. Demonstrated as well as mathematics and chess require the following: a logical thinking by which each step must be justified and follow an internal logic, a strategic planning through which in chess you plan several moves forward, and in mathematics you build a step-by-step demonstration, an ability to see patterns so that pattern and configuration recognition becomes essential in chess, too, and in solving mathematical problems, and last but not least creativity, which involves finding unconventional solutions or an ingenious move that becomes the key to success. These things are found in both areas, both chess and math, but not only.
Chess Mathematics
Presents a limited space, just chessboard, that is, a finite space that has precise rules of movement and not anyway
There is an interaction with the Adversary, so that each move must be made so as not to disadvantage it to the opponent
There is a complexity that only increases if it is well done, and by advancing the game the number of possibilities increases through a mathematical operation, namely exponential.
