I like the decimal now on when we will either be passed or pass another team.

I loved that stuff, about 15 years ago. I need to take it again now that I'm taking classes once more.

And to think, I barely passed Algebra! (And now I want to do something with Fourier Analysis (harmonic analysis) and don't know who to ask for help in programming it...) Sad

Someday... Someday...

ADD: Maybe I can P.M. Sir Yankton... Hmmm... Very Happy

Much of my programming skills are expired, the only things I code these days are web pages or the occasional script and even then not that often (my regular job frequently eats my time up, especially as I'm finally getting around to taking classes again) but if I can help I will. You might do better with someone who programs more frequently (or recently).

Strangely enough on that note, lots of the large financial systems people are unwilling to upgrade are done in cobol and no one codes cobol anymore. Time to learn it and make some side money!!

One of the larger IBM plants wasn't far from where I grew up. I remember how excited they were when they developed the first 16 MB ram stick!!

I got to grow up around some nerds. It was fun!

I doubt if you calculate RAC, but I've been toying with a shorter-term version.

RAC is a fairly simple exponential function EXP(-LN(2)/½Life) = 0.905...., where ½Life is 7 days. This reaches ~95% of it's final value in ~4 weeks. To calculate is simple (on a daily basis); multiply yesterdays RAC by 0.905 and add today's score * (1-0.905). [The official BOINC version is a bit more complicated 'cos they calculate to the nearest second, but that's nigh on for a daily update].

Now, for a shorter term version, say Ni!RAC, a ½Life of 1.6-odd days* (found with Excel goal-seek) gets to 95% in 7 days and consequently reacts much more quickly. The numbers work out at 0.65... & 1-0.65... (You could use a ½Life of 1 day, but that gets a bit too erratic.)

A lot of work, but would give a much more reactive measure for overtaking stats.

As an illustration for those who don't comprehend exponential functions and half-lives, if you started crunching a project on Monday, by the following Monday your RAC would be 50, but your Ni!RAC would show 95.
