Go up one level in this thread


I wrote a very simple console application,
which are called 'stronger'. You can download
both the source code and a (Win32) executable
from my website. It supposes that both
players have the same strength and then computes
the probability that the score you enter
(or better for the best side) occurs.
This probability should obviously be low,
say, below 5%, otherwise the players can
well be equally strong.
Since the source code is given, you can see
what is going on, and adapt the program as
you like (that is, if you know how to program).
Before I wrote this, I also used whoisbetter,
but once my machine crashed, so I decided to
write a program for this purpose myself.
Any comments are welcome.
