Algorithm for generate single elimination round from previous groups phase in a tournament

1 New Member
An example tournament has two stages, groups play + bracket play. When the groups stage ends, the x top of each group go to bracket stage. In the brackets stage there are two basics rules:
  • a winner of a group should not be matched against a winner of another group (only against 2nd or 3rd place)
  • no two teams that played in the same group should be matched against each other.

For example, if we have 6 groups and top 2 each group advance to bracket, the bracket must be:



Another example with 4 groups of 8 teams and all teams advance to bracket:



I would appreciate any help. Thanks.

Thus, each team plays a total of 9 matches. The tournament is divided into 3 "rounds", each consisting of 15 matches. All 10 teams are present at each round, and...

We are writing an app that assigns people to teams based on their curent score. Teams are 8 people, there are 2 teams. (i would like it to be flexible, but this is a start). I need an algorithm that creates the 2 teams such that the total score for each team is as close as possible. Any ideas?? Thanks!

Hi folks! Everyone knows how to sort arrays (e. g. quicksort, heapsort etc.) For linked lists, mergesort is the typical choice.

I read something about Mcilroy's "Optimistic Merge Sort" and studied some implementation, but they were for...

Hello all.. I wrote code in C to invert n x n matrices, where 1<n<39 and the matrices are guaranteed to be invertible.

I append an identity matrix to the right of the one I wish to invert, use...

I know that Single and Double can only store values that can be stored as x/2^y, such as 0.5 and 0.125. But when they attempt to store values such as 0.1 or 0.2 whose exact value cannot be stored, what algorithm do they use to determine what value to store? Thanks. -- Nathan Sokalski njsokalski@hotmail.com http://www.nathansokalski.com/
