This is a program that uses data given by BracketCounter to calculate COBEN based on data regarding BracketCounter's accuracy, as Bracket has been known to over/underestimate the counts by around 300, at most.
Note that this, NOR BracketCounter can give accurate representations on who is going to be eliminated in TPOT x.
Open bfb_coben.py
in Visual Studio Code or Notepad (any text/code editor)
Edit the variables at the beginning to your desire (contestants, vote counts, margin of error (contestant_se), total simulations) (do note you would need to rename the variables if you want to change the characters, I'd recommend a find and replace tool to do this easily)
There are two ways I've successfully tried running the code.
1. Visual Studio Code
a) Open the code with Visual Studio Code, then run it with the play button.
2. Command Prompt
Sometimes, I have an error! This is how I run it when that happens.
a) Open cmd.exe
b) Use cd
to the path where bfb_coben.py
is stored.
c) Run python bfb_coben.py
