Blizzcon qualification probabilities simulation - Page 30

class Player;
class Event {
int player_id;
int tournament_id;
int placing;
}
class Sim {
vector<Player> players;//their state at the end of the simulation
vector<Event> events;
}
class Match {
vector<Player> players;
void simulate(Sim &sim);
};
class Round {
vector<Match> matches;
int points_for_4th,points_for_3rd,points_for_2nd,points_for_1st;
void simulate(Sim &sim)
{ /*
Here I add the points to the player in the sim object depending on their placement in the match/group
I also push them to the next round if they placed high enough to advance.
If they don't advance in this match then I add an event in the sim object for their placement in the tournament.
*/}
};
class Tournament {
vector<Round> rounds;
void simulate(Sim &sim);
}

And then I loop through simulating the tournaments.

for(int i=0; i<num_sims; i++) {
for(int t=0; t<tournaments.size();t++) {
tournaments[t].simulate(simulations[i]);
}
}

Now I have a ton of simulation runs each with a ton of events. So then I do something like this
for(int i=0;i<players.size();i++) {
find_big_events_for_player_and_group_them();
/*this finds events that help/hurt the players' chances
and groups them together if they exist in the same simulation at least once*/

count_eventgroups_hits();
/*This counts how many times each event/eventgroup that was found in the previous function happens
It counts hits and misses separately.
A hit is when the event/eventgroup happens AND the player qualifies for blizzcon.
A miss is when the event/eventgroup happens AND the player does not qualify for blizzcon.
*/
sort_eventgroups_for_player();
show_next_match_for_player();
show_top15_eventgroups_for_player();
