BootChess memecahkan rekor sebagai program catur komputer yang terkecil ukuran filenya di dunia dengan hanya 487 Byte. Padahal kita tahu ukuran 1 KB=1024 Byte adalah SANGAT KECILNYA. 1 Byte bisa dikatakan sebagai 1 huruf/karakter. Berarti 487 Byte bisa dibilang 487 karakter. Ini adalah penerapan KECERDASAN BUATAN (AI) paling efisien terkecil yang ASAL BISA JALAN MIKIR CATUR. Tentu saja dengan ukuran file sekecil itu, kita jangan berharap terlalu banyak. Tapi jangan meremehkan BootChess ini. Program ini sudah BISA MIKIR CATUR dengan benar sesuai aturan catur. Dan bisa membunuh anda jika anda blunder salah langkah. Tapi jangan dibandingkan dengan program/enjin catur kuat dunia macam Houdini, Komodo apalagi Stockfish. Kekuatannya tentu jauh dari itu. Membuat program catur yang bisa mikir dengan ukuran file kurang dari 1 KB bukanlah pekerjaan yang mudah. Pengen nyobak main ya?
Program Catur BootChess yang istimewa ini dibuat oleh programmer Olivier Poudade dan Peter Ferrie. Bisa dijalankan di banyak platform seperti DOS, Windows, Linux, OS X, dll. BootChess memecahkan rekor dunia dengan mengalahkan pemegang rekor sebelumnya sebagai program catur terkecil ukuran filenya di dunia komputer yaitu 1K ZX Chess berukuran 672 Byte yang dibuat oleh Programmer David Horne yang dibuat Tahun 1982. BootChess sangat penting untuk dunia pendidikan khususnya pelajaran KECERDAS BUATAN (AI).
Adapun kode lengkap dari BootChess adalah sebagai berikut yang dikoding dengan bahasa Pemrograman C yang memang banyak dipake untuk pemrograman kecerdasan buatan seperti program catur.
