In the spirit of the Erdős number that mathmeticians track, I propose that teams be assigned "OP Numbers", defined as follows:
- Team 2056 has OP Number = 0. They are unique.
- A team that has been on the winning alliance n times with 2056 at an official FRC event has OP Number = 1/n.
- A team that has been on the winning alliance with any team whose OP Number is greater than zero and less than or equal to one has OP Number = 2.
- A team that has been on the winning alliance with any team whose OP Number is 2 has OP Number = 3.
- And so on.
To start,
1114 has OP Number = 1/16
1547 has OP Number = 1/2
The following teams have OP Number = 1
Can anyone provide a script to calculate OP numbers for all currently active FRC teams?*

*Ether, you are ineligible. However, following your lead I will give rep points to the first CD student who shows a correct result, with sufficient detail to let others check the method used. |
does "winning alliance" mean only regional winning alliance, or might it also include district, district champs, division, and/or champs winning alliance? also should offseason events be included? all of them? some?
