Problem with Tactics Trainer stats

Sort:
OSIRIS_007

I noticed their seems to be an error in the calculation of percentages. My statistics right now are:

Problems

# Attempts:20
Passed: 17 (90%)
Failed:3 (20%)

My passed score is 17/20, or 85%, and my failed score is 3/20, or 15%, which add up to 100%. Right now it adds up to 110%.

There seem to be many glitches with the Tactics Trainer feature.

The percentages are now fixed. Was just an issue with rounding too soon. :)  Unbeliever, you say there are many glitches, what other glitches have you found? If you report them I'll be happy to look into it and fix them. thanks!

Sorry, should have stated this originally.

 

I believe there have been other threads in which people expressed that the tactical problems within tactics trainer have flawed solutions.  It is not so much a computer problem, but a tactics problem :)  I think there was a different thread in which Erik asked that all flawed tactics problems be posted, so they can be checked out.

I have seen ones that if you can move in two ways and mate but it only gives you credit for the one the computer has recorded.

 

I also notice that some of the tactics are not really tactics as much as half a game worth of moves.

Yes, it is going to take some time before we get all the various tactical problems cleaned up and get new good ones inserted as well. The more you guys report the bad ones, the faster we can get them cleaned up or removed. thanks!

I noticed a tactical mistake in problem 0022470. For the first move, Ke8 leads to the same result, but is written as a mistake.
