Gabriel Volpe has a book that goes over just that using the typelevel stack. I highly recommend it: https://leanpub.com/pfp-scala

The only issue I had was how to put all this knowledge together. For that I bought Practical FP in scala by Gabriel Vlope, it's not for beginners, tho but takes you through a project with the latest typelevel stack. Here's the link. https://leanpub.com/pfp-scala.

This is a really good book https://leanpub.com/pfp-scala

If you want a solid understanding of FP and not just FP in Scala, I highly recommend installing GHCup and working through Haskell Programming From First Principles. Then I would work through Scala With Cats, Essential Effects, and Practical FP in Scala for how all of that maps onto Scala.

Practical FP in Scala

BTW for learning good application structure with Tagless Final I really recommend the book Practical FP in Scala and its work-along example application. That's where I stole the pattern above from.

Once you’re finished, we’re going to set up a lichess bot account. Head over to https://lichess.org/ and create a new account.

> the player who committed more blunders lost 86% of the time

In some sense this is almost tautological. While finding an exact definition for a chess blunder isn't straightforward, here is one example from the Lichess UI:

https://github.com/lichess-org/lila/blob/b527746b179cdde6438...

Basically, if you make a move which decreases your winning probability more than 14% over the best move, that's a blunder. But winning probability is a nonlinear function of stockfish centipawns. A drop in 100 centipawns when you're up 15 points isn't a blunder. When the game was equal, it is.

Point is, by the time you know it's a blunder you already know something about the outcome of that move, that it swung the winning probability by more than 14%. So the analysis is kind of just measuring some function of winning probability and saying that it is highly correlated with winning probability.

If you want to improve make it your goal to play the best chess you can, not increase an arbitrary number. Watch YouTube series like John Bartholomew's "Climb the Rating Ladder" for some general insight into what you might be doing wrong. Read Irving Chernev's "Logical Chess: Move By Move" to see the thinking process of high level players. Do lots of puzzles (I like lichess.org for puzzles). And always analyze your games. When you analyze make it your goal to find at least two things you could have improved.

The easiest way to play against Stockfish is perhaps on https://lichess.org/, but it's not the only chess engine that evaluates positions with a neural network.
