How to express the below piece(Conjurer) by Betza notation? This piece can move Ferz and a zig zag by slide, it is not jumping.

Conjurer

You mean it can only move to (say) c5 if either b4 or d4 is empty? This would be FasF, or [F?sF] (which is equal to F[F-sF]) in bracket notation.


hirosi Kano wrote on Sat, Mar 15 02:01 PM UTC in reply to H. G. Muller from 01:52 PM:

Thank you very much. It works well. I am weak in the notation of a.


H. G. Muller wrote on Sat, Mar 15 02:09 PM UTC in reply to hirosi Kano from 02:01 PM:

Yes, the bracket notation is easier. But it does not work yet for all combinations of moves. I hope to fix that one day.


hirosi Kano wrote on Sat, Mar 15 02:27 PM UTC in reply to H. G. Muller from 02:09 PM:

I have not ever heard the bracket notation. Maybe, I seem that I am hard to understand the system like a [] or ?-.


H. G. Muller wrote on Sat, Mar 15 02:36 PM UTC in reply to hirosi Kano from 02:27 PM:

The [] are just delimiters to indicate everything written between them describes a single move. A dash - means continuation, and separates the various 'legs' of the move, a question mark indicates the continuation is optional, and that what was written before it is a valid move in itself. So [F-sF] means an F move mandatorily followed by another F move in the sideway direction (i.e. perpendicular to the first). By default non-final legs must go to empty squares, and continuation legs go as much as possible in the same direction.

Thank you for your lecture. I have learned very well, but it is very hard to understand for English. I am now learning English and Betza notation scripts etc. by this page. I am glad to make public of my jobs.

I cannot change the status of my recent article from private. I have tried your advice but error has been occurred. Please help me with my problem.

Same.

Why ask me? The text already tells you what to do and I'm not an editor at least as I type this.

That's why I posted Interactive Diagrams for my variants in the comments section instead.

OK, thanks. I am looking for that the editor notices me.
