a simple chess game

[salman155]

hi

im learning java script, and am fairly new to the code. i need to make a simple chess game using java and was wondering if you could help me.

im using Ready to Program With java technology, i need to make a game with simple movements of a pawn, king, queen, bishop, rook and knight. i am having trouble writing a code for the bishop. can some one please guide me in the right direction.

thanks

Do you mean a software for two humans to use it for play?
Or a chess software which actually responds to your moves?

Java or JavaScript?

fischermx, yes one where a computer responses back.

fotiman, yes sorry its java not javascript

You are in the wrong forum then. This is a JavaScript forum.

Nope, he is the wrong site!
I don't think he can get answers to that kind of question here.

Salman: I think you need to use the usenet newsgroups to get help on that kind of stuff.

BTW, are you doing this all from scratch? There are several free chess engines sources out there. Some in C++ and there's one in Turbo Pascal.

Oh sorry, is there a website that could tell me java code for a chess game?

There's a lot out there that offer sourcecode you can study -- just search for "java applet chess game sourcecode" or something with similar keywords.

Sorry we don't allow links here, and we also don't have a java development forum.

Thank you for the tip :)

Looks like a homework project to me.

The bishop code seems easy. The knight would be the tricky part.

Or castling. :P
