Blindfold Knight Route

Here is a possible fun application that I created. This was suggested to me for improving board visualization and hence I created this app. Download the zip file from this link http://www.harishsrinivasan.com/knightroute/knightroute.zip.




  1. Unzip the file
  2. Inside the folder, you will find an application named knightroute
  3. Start it up
  4. You are to answer 10 random questions on knight hops. for eg. d5 d1? , one of the correct answer is d5 e3 d1
  5. For fast answering, just type in the answer and hit enter and it will go to the next question...and so on
  6. When you are done with 10 questions, it will give you a score.
  7. Max score is 100 and is obtained if all 10 questions are answered within 7 seconds
  8. Beware, there is negative points for incorrect answer.
  9. If you take more than 20 seconds for every correct answer, then the score is 1 pt for each correct answer making it 10
  10. So for all correct answers, your score can range anywhere between 10 and 100
  11. Post your best score in the comments!!!
The app is very primitive. I am thinking of adding more capabilities for training in future. Any suggestions for improvements are most welcome.
