Hi fellow FIRSTers!
In light of the recent debates/discussions surrounding the seeding scores and strategies, and
my teammate's post (
further info) about our seeding score calculator in LabVIEW, I've created an iPhone app to quickly calculate seeding scores from points and penalties.
The app allows you to increase/decrease the raw score and penalty values for each alliance, then calculates the Coopertition bonus and final Seeding score according to Rev. D of the competition manual. It just went through the review process and is now available to download for free.
Download:
FRC Scoring 2010 (App Store link; version 1.0, 0.2MB). If the seeding algorithm gets changed again, I'll try to get out an update as soon as possible — if I don't notice, or you have other bug reports, post in this thread to bug me about it (or
tweet at me or something) and I'll see what I can do.
(If anyone really wants to see the source code, let me know... I may open-source it but right now there's really no compelling reason. It's not that complicated

)
Anyway, I hope this can be of some use in subsequent competition weeks. If not directly useful to the alliances, it can at least generate some good argument material for those in the stands. Good luck to all!
