Andscacs is today one of the Top-10 engines, among the strongest "followers" placed just behind Stockfish, Komodo & Houdini.
Andscacs is developed and programmed by Daniel José Queraltó from Andorra. It currently plays in TCEC-10 Round-1 undefeated and will qualify for Round-2.
Daniel Jose describes Andscacs in his HOMEPAGE like: "It's born in September 2013. It has approximately 3240 elo. The new versions will be published in this website. Andscacs means "And" for Andorra, the country where I live, and scacs for "escacs", chess in catalan."
CCRL 40/4 rates Andscacs 0.92 about 3270 ELO for Windows, which makes it #7 of the list. Therefore, to honor the TCEC event (i guess), the author has decided last week to provide the source code of the version playing there. It was an unexpected but a nice gift indeed because the engine used to be closed source until today.
I didn't wait too long to notify Alexei Chernakoff who kindly sweated a lot to port the code to Android. The result seems very satisfying after a little rework for arm8 version.
I'll be highly glad to rate Andscacs in Rapidroid, which i hope to update before December comes.
