// This amazing one-piece algorithm completes an average of roughly 600 000
// rows, and often attains 2 000 000 or 2 500 000 rows. However, the algorithm
// sometimes completes as few as 15 000 rows. I am fairly certain that this
// is NOT due to statistically abnormal patterns in the falling piece sequence.
//
// Pierre Dellacherie corresponded with me via e-mail to help me with the
// conversion of his Pascal code to C++.
//
// WARNING:
// If there is a single board and piece combination with the highest
// 'rating' value, it is the best combination. However, among
