    That's the scorecard for a round.

    That's the stroke by stroke information for a particular hole. The numbers are the number of yards from the hole the ball is after each stroke. Negative means it overshot.
     
  2. HeathDavisSpeed HT Davis

    How many yards was the hole? Player B must have hit an epic tee shot.

    Should probably have the yardage for each hole below the Par score on the round scorecard. Looks good though.

    You can probably round the distances to 1 decimal place at most, aye?
     
  3. Escath LE Schaw

    445. I don't actually know how he hit that many yards. There's a 1% chance he drive for 384 yards or more with some plus/minus but there's only a 1% chance the variance would be +48 yards or more.

    Either it's a bug or he got really, really lucky.

    400m drive? Luck doesn't allow you to hit a ball 400
     
  6. 99* JJ Ritchie

    Superheavy wind assistance maybe?
     
  7. Escath LE Schaw

    I've lowered the variance and mean.
     
  8. Escath LE Schaw

    Played around with the numbers lots and I think I like the results a lot better now. Same course and hole as before.

    Did you say you were doing this for a uni course of some kind?
     
  10. Escath LE Schaw

    I wish my uni courses had projects this easy.
     
  11. Baxter MJ Deane

    Some of them have putted despite being 0.1 yards away?
     
  12. Escath LE Schaw

    That's due to rounding and some leniency to account for the width of the hole.
     
  13. Gazza GJ Weaver

    How about making the distances inverse so we know how big each shot was? I mean we still can your way but it will be quicker and easier to read
     
  14. Escath LE Schaw

    What do you mean make them inverse?

    Would this work?

    Yeah that's mean
     
  16. HeathDavisSpeed HT Davis

    Those roundings are a bit annoying. Have you used the =ROUND(x,1) sub-formula? It might help get rid of those little differences.
     
  17. Escath LE Schaw

    That's what I used. They're all one decimal place other than for 0
     
  18. HeathDavisSpeed HT Davis

    Not sure how its gone from +2.4, a shot played for -2.7 and ends up at -0.4 then.
     
  19. Escath LE Schaw

    Rounding errors...

    2.35 rounds to 2.4. 2.74 rounds to 2.7. The difference is .39, which rounds to .4

    I'm gonna run with 15 tournaments including 4 majors, sounds legit for a first season?
