score calculation

Hi.
I read somewhere that there is a limit to the way the score is
calculated. As far as I remember the problem was that if the keyword in
the search string was present more than N times the score would be
wrong.

Can anyone comfirm this or point me to the limitations of the score? I
have read about it on mysql.com but Im unable to find anything about
the actual score calculation.

I'm looking from an algorithm that will do a statistics calculation for me-- it's the first time 'Numerical Recipies in C' has failed me! A normal distribution table tells me the probability (by percentile) of an item, given something called a z-score. If I have a z-score, I can look up the probability in a distribution table. There are plenty of algorithms around to do that calculation, but I need to do a reverse lookup. I am given a...

I have problems calculating score percentages within groups. I have created a boat program in access where the information provided is name, team, boat and score. The first query I've done is to produce the ranking according to the score, which worked fine. The second query is about giving 100% to the highest score per boat and then taking the percentage of that score and calculate the rest of the team scores according to that score;...

I have developed a small arcade game with the help of a few VB books. A scoring system was implemented in the design of the game but I as hoping that some one would be able to instruct me on how display the score at the end of the game.

This is a quick copy and paste...

I am trying to save the high scores of a game I made. Now Im stumped on trying to search through the file. Should I use a string, array, or one of the STL containers to manipulate the information read from the file? I have tried the stringname.find("Name"); This only returns the first occurence, and doesn't look for other occurences.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers. The idea...
