… Using an engine to study openings is a waste of your study time and effort. If you're using them just to see how to play against bad lines as you say, and you enjoy it then it doesn't matter. But your question also illustrates why you should not use an engines for openings, or study openings right now. Engines do not explain "why"

Isn't it possible that an engine can, in some cases, indirectly explain, by showing how it would play a position? Possibly instructive to see how an engine would continue after

?

True. Hopefully, he's only using the engine to spot blunders. He still needs to learn from the traditional sources: books, DVDs, trainers, stronger opponents, etc. (And lots of self-analysis via blood, sweat, and tears...)

...with extreme authority? No, it's just my opinion; If you want to disagree, that's fine. BTW, I AM a patzer, but not really a beginner.

I actually responded to his original question. I can't seem to find your constructive input, though.

For what it’s worth, the post match analysis on chess.com is really great. The fact that it is seamlessly integrated makes it easy.

When you make a mistake or blunder and want to see how it would play out if you made the chess.com move, is there a mechanism for doing that?

Yes chicken monster, you can move the pieces according to the suggested computer line or any other move you want to try, and the computer updates the evaluation after every move. You can also click the "finish against the computer" button which looks like a pawn with a hand on it. That allows you to play out a game from any position and you have the option of seeing or not seeing the evaluation. You can choose the computer strength also of course.
