HI Slach,
I am also working on a scoring app. I am interested on the stats you are trying to calculate, I am also calculate some stats and want to calculate more. What you write is not very clear:
Total Points 100
- Ok this is the current score. Fine
Shots Taken 120
- What is this? The total number of strokes? It includes everything shot taken, safeties also?
Shots Made 105 (83%)
- What is this? The number of shot that resulted in 1 or more balls legally pocketed? How can it be greater that the total points?
Misses 10 (8%)
- How do you calculated this? Anytime a player doesn't pocket a ball? What if it is a safe? How does your app knows the difference?
Good Misses 5 (50%)
- Please define in terms of data input
Safeties 5 (4%)
- Please define in terms of data input
Good Safeties 4 (80%)
- Please define in terms of data input
Fouls 5 (4%)
- Please define in terms of data input
Good Fouls 1 (20%)
- Please define in terms of data input
High Run 45
- Ok.
Average Run 11.0
- Not too informative. Often players make 1 ball with the intention of player safe on the next shot. This is skewing the piece of data enormously.
Can you tell me all the buttons your app will have? I feel if you want calculate what is listed above you need many more buttons than just +1, miss/safe, foul
The apps are available, one Android (v4), one iOS (v1) and one Windows (v1). They're all very similar, the Android one's been around a few years, the other two are new. They're all free.
There's links to the apps on the downloads page of
www.cue-md.com, or search for '14.1 Scorer' in the Apple or Google app stores.
Here's an explanation of the match stats, the Breaks stat is only in the Android App (currently)...
Shots Taken - one for each ball made plus one for each safety, miss or foul.
Shots Made & percent - one for each ball made, percent is (Shots Made/Shots Taken)
Misses & percent - one for each miss, percent is (Misses/Shots Taken)
Good Misses & percent - one for each miss your opponent did not make any balls after, percent is (Good Misses/Misses)
Safeties & percent - one for each safety, percent is (Safeties/Shots Taken)
Good Safeties & percent - one for each safety your opponent did not make any balls after, percent is (Good Safeties/Safeties)
Fouls & percent - one for each foul, percent is (Fouls/Shots Taken)
Good Fouls & percent - one for each foul your opponent did not make any balls after, percent is (Good Fouls/Fouls)
Breaks - number of break shots (after a new rack)
Good Breaks & percent - number of Break shots in which the called ball was made, percent is (Good Breaks/Breaks)
High Run - self explanatory, I think
Average Run - number of balls made/number of innings
