Surprise, surprise, checkers is actually more computationally intensive
than chess. Unless you are willing to write highly optimized assembler
or C routines for the move calculation...this would only be a rough demo.
Euphoria is appropriate for many things, but this doesn't happen to be
one of them. That is no knock on Euphoria...all those highly optimized
routines written for super-computers still can't beat top checker players.
