Wayne,
The right most column of the spreadsheet lists the points that a pilot earns in all the contests that he/she has attended.

Default Re: TAS 2006 Point Standing

Hi Stephen,
Before my program is run, I have to create text files with contest results. The result files are stored in seperate directories based on regions (SW,NW,SC,NC, etc...). I can do it very quicky by cutting and pasting the result from website. The content of result in the text file looks like:

Stephen Hamilton
Michael Jackson
George Bush

When the program runs, it reads Pilot name from the file. First one is first place; second one is second place, and so on.... It allocates one structure (memory) dynamically for each pilot and links them together as a single linked list as it goes. Each structure contains points earned per contest, pilot name, etc... When it finishes reading the files (end of file - feof()), program knows how many pilots are in that contest and pilot placements. It then calculates TAS points based on the specified criterions. Finally, it sorts the linked link based on the TAS points in decending order and display them. It does other things as well but this should give you some ideas.

Writing the program took me a few hours. Including one contest to the point standing doesn't take more than 2 minutes. Sometimes, it takes longer for me to do this when pilots use different names in different contests (David Moser and Dave Moser, Mike Elder and Michael Elders). I have to spot these discrepencies manually and then correct these in the contest result files.

Writing this program is easier than doing a "0 of 8" or "0 of 16" maneuver. :-)

I will try to update the list whenever result is available from now to July 31.

I hope it helps.

Hi Stephen,
The lists in the first post of this thread should contain standings for each region and nation-wide. These lists were created/tabulated based on all the results that I have been able to collect so far. Check it out. Click here for short-cut TAS 2006 Point Standing


Based on the nation-wide standing, you are currently at 3rd with 4 flown contests. Congratulations!

Are you planning on going to TAS this year?

Nice work and thanks for the effort. Up here in the NE region, its next to impossible to qualify for the shootout. With 6 contests all year, 2 of which are in Canada, and only 2 of which happen before the deadline, us northerners are just about out of luck when it comes to the TAS.

2 questions.........


1. Kevin, since you wrote the program, I would have at least thought you'd fudge the numbers so you were higher up......or did you already do that and thats as high as you can get without making it look obvious.

2. This is for my buds in LA. Spgbob your sitting 7th nationwide, and JPRC your sitting 25th. Better get practicing!

I thought about that when I was coding the program. However, I predicted that I would be the first one that your buddies in LA might double check my points based on the SW contest results. I didn't want to trick the numbers and make myself look bad eventually.
