Rank and Rating

Path: Rank   · Prev: EuropeanRanks   · Next: KGSRatingMath
   

Since ranks in Go are rooted in the idea of giving numbers of handicap stones, they are usefully distinguished from ratings on numerical scales with many more subdivisions.

For example the EGF ratings are designed so that 100 rating points should correspond to a one-stone (and therefore one dan or kyu) difference.
