The Battle.net Ladder Rating Calculator
Version 1.0

----- OVERVIEW -------------------------------------------------------------------

This program has been created for easy calculations of changes in ladder ratings
in two-player ladder matches on Battle.net.  To use the Ratings Calculator you
must enter the names of the participants, their current ladder ratings and the
number of ladder matches each player has been in.  All of these numbers must be
taken from the current statistics in the Ladder section of Battle.net for an
accurate portrayal of the changes in ratings.

----- PROGRAM DETAILS ------------------------------------------------------------

The name fields do not affect the calculations in anyway other than as a reference
for which rating is changing.  You may enter a name up to 15 characters long
with either uppercase or lowercase letters, numbers or symbols.  You do not have
to accurately spell the names of the players, as long as you can distinguish 
between the two.

The ratings fields are currently limited to an integer value between 0 and 5000.
The limit may change in forecoming versions of this program.

The # of matches fields are needed to calculate the K values for the win 
probability equation.

----- TECHNICAL NOTES ------------------------------------------------------------

The ratings are rounded down integers from a floating point value of the ladder
ratings change and therefore the predictions may be off by a point.  If this
becomes a large problem, the situation will be addressed in forthcoming versions
of this program.
