Subject: Use explicit logic for pruning
X-Git-Url: https://git.sesse.net/?p=stockfish;a=commitdiff_plain;h=e27d3bb884dc17027010c1ea8f7e7d9efb383d4c

Use explicit logic for pruning

Also a speedup since we don't need to recalculate SEE
for extensions...as it already determined to be positive.

Results for 12 tests for each version:

p-value: 0.669
speedup: 0.027

Non functional change.
