   6   Every piece has a charge generating a magnetic field, except the two kings
   7   which have a neutral charge.
   8   Pieces of the same color have let's say a positive charge,
   9   while the others have a negative charge.
  10   After each move positive charges attract negative ones, and repel positive ones.

  28   While castling, the changes are made by the rook movement.
