I am building a plugin for a LAN party website that I wrote that would allow the use of a Round Robin tournament.
All is going well, but I have some questions about the most efficient way to rank over two criteria.
Basically, I would like the following ranking layout:
Rank Wins TotalScore
PersonE 1 5 50
PersonD 2 3.5 37
PersonA 2 3.5 37
PersonC 4 2.5 26
PersonB 5 2.5 24
PersonF 6 0 12
In SQL server, I would use:
SELECT
[Person],
RANK() OVER (ORDER BY Wins DESC, TotalScore DESC) [Rank],
[Wins],
[TotalScore]
Now, I only have List, Dictionary, and etc. to work with
Specifically:
Dictionary<TournamentTeam, double> wins = new Dictionary<TournamentTeam, double>();
Dictionary<TournamentTeam, double> score = new Dictionary<TournamentTeam, double>();
Is there a way to do this style of ranking with LINQ?
If not, is there an extensible way that would allow me later to take in to account Win-Loss-Draw instead of just wins if I choose to?
Edit:
My adaptation of TheSoftwareJedi's answer:
private class RRWinRecord : IComparable
{
public int Wins { get; set; }
public int Losses { get; set; }
public int Draws { get; set; }
public double OverallScore { get; set; }
public double WinRecord
{
get
{
return this.Wins * 1.0 + this.Draws * 0.5 + this.Losses * 0.0;
}
}
public int CompareTo(object obj) { ... }
public override bool Equals(object obj) { ... }
public override int GetHashCode() { ... }
public static bool operator ==(RRWinRecord lhs, RRWinRecord rhs) { ... }
public static bool operator !=(RRWinRecord lhs, RRWinRecord rhs) { ... }
public static bool operator >(RRWinRecord lhs, RRWinRecord rhs) { ... }
public static bool operator <(RRWinRecord lhs, RRWinRecord rhs) { ... }
public static bool operator >=(RRWinRecord lhs, RRWinRecord rhs) { ... }
public static bool operator <=(RRWinRecord lhs, RRWinRecord rhs) { ... }
}
...
int r = 1, lastRank = 1;
RRWinRecord lastRecord = null;
var ranks = from team in records.Keys
let teamRecord = records[team]
orderby teamRecord descending
select new RRRank() { Team = team, Rank = r++, Record = teamRecord };
foreach (var rank in ranks)
{
if (rank.Record != null && lastRecord == rank.Record)
{
rank.Rank = lastRank;
}
lastRecord = rank.Record;
lastRank = rank.Rank;
string scoreDescription = String.Format("{0}-{1}-{2}", rank.Record.Wins, rank.Record.Losses, rank.Record.Draws);
yield return new TournamentRanking(rank.Team, rank.Rank, scoreDescription);
}
yield break;
