Subject: Co-efficient of Uncertainty (5) - EXERTION RATINGS- a system<br /><br />
Author Lowell Harbison(Munro) NZ - Part 8 Maths for Games (1968-1971)<br /><br />
Mr Harbison was keen on whole numbers, short half heads, necks, half lengths<br />
don't exist in his racing world - all of those are 1(One) and anything more<br />
than 1 is two, more than two is 3 etc. etc.<br /><br />
There is no reference to behind the scenes study to allow him to use the<br />
values as he did - it seems it was convenience, that's all, and who doesn't<br />
want to get rid of decimals, I know I do.<br /><br />
His insistence of rounding up applied to race weights too. 51.5 kilograms<br />
became 52kgs, 57.5 became 58 kind of thing.<br /><br />
But, and however, I have used the existing values in any explanation or<br />
demonstration of his methods. That's convenience for you.<br /><br />
Another thing is this. I bet nobody else is doing it this way, now or in the<br />
future!<br /><br />
