However, no success with the 64-bit version, it still complains that it is missing libgcc_s_sjlj-1.dll, although I've downloaded that file as well and I have placed it in all possible directories.
Perhaps we better use the 32 bit then. 64bit was only compiled because at that time I don't have mingw32 installed.

Example :
Before :

Code: Select all

Rank Name                                   Elo    +    - games score oppo. draws
   1 Rybka 3 64-bit 4CPU                   3197   10   10  4119   77%  3007   34% 
After :

Code: Select all

Rank Name                                   Elo       +       -    games score    oppo.    draws
   1 Rybka 3 64-bit 4CPU                   3197.xxx   10.xxx   10.xxx  4119   77.xxx%  3007.xxx   34.xxx%

I already asked to Rémi Coulom but he was to busy ...
Thanks !
I made this modification long ago. I am only using 1 decimal point but it would be easy to change to more.

Really there is no need for more precision, but we are typically testing small changes where it's nice (if not particularly meaningful) to be able to distinguish between 2 different version that round to the same integer rating.

Capital punishment would be more effective as a preventive measure if it were administered prior to the crime.
