The introduction of LoAs is often an important step prior to mathematical modelling of the phenomenon under consideration. However, even when that further step is not taken, the introduction of LoAs remains a crucial tool in conceptual anal…[^5]: As the reader probably knows, this is done by recording the history of the game: move by move the state of each piece on the board is recorded—in English algebraic notation—by rank and file, the piece being moved and the consequences …
