chess notation
Chess notation is very important as in tournaments you need to analyze your games after a match.
So today is how to read chess notation
take any board for our example:
See on the side of the board there are numbers and at the bottom, there are letters now find the e4 square for me:
If you found it great!
there are 63 more squares like that on the board.
There is also chess notation for moving the pieces for example
Nc3:
And every piece's first letter goes in front of the notation and then where they moved to.
Note: pawns do not have their first letter in front of where they moved to.
Special notations are like how you write checkmate, for checkmate, there is a # at the end of the notation: Qh8#
The notation for promoting a pawn is the letter at the bottom of the board
then = and after that the first letter of the piece that the pawn promoted to E=Q
But what happens when you have 2 rooks that can go to a square? well, the notation is Rae1:
But there is a even more confusing notation
And the last notation we have is the notation for castling:
Short castle: O-O
Long castle: O-O-O
