From e3ef9bcdbb10b90c03cc5dbcf08308f1752d145e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ivan Daniluk Date: Wed, 5 Apr 2023 13:36:45 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] Fix points in the IAAF example The points in the example seems to be calculated incorrectly. Official lookup table shows 671 for 11.78 100m men outdoor results, and calculating given formula also yields 671.12. --- docs/iaaf.md | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/docs/iaaf.md b/docs/iaaf.md index d4af39c..18cbe7d 100644 --- a/docs/iaaf.md +++ b/docs/iaaf.md @@ -17,7 +17,7 @@ Let's consider 100m outdoor men as an example. The reference time for this event is 17 seconds in the 2017 edition. Suppose John ran the distance in 11.78 seconds. That is 5.22 seconds better than -the reference time. John's result is equivalent to 24.63 * 5.22^2 = 952 points +the reference time. John's result is equivalent to 24.63 * 5.22^2 = 671 points (we round the decimals down to the nearest integer). The 24.63 is a coefficient specific to this event.
