Hi All,
It is possible to use d'A Lab to lab-test OSCAR'S GRIND!
By reading the variable bankRoll in a formula it is actually possible to calculate the Oscar's bet after a win.
The rules are:
- After a WIN, add 1u to the last bet EXCEPT if the total loss is less than the last bet bet + 1u, in which case the bet will be the total loss + 1u.
- After a LOSS, use the same bet-size as the last bet.
You calculate the bet (after a WIN) with this formula:
(lastBet+1)-((Math.abs(bankRoll)<lastBet+1&&bankRoll<1)*(lastBet+1))+((Math.abs(bankRoll)<lastBet+1&&bankRoll<1)*(Math.abs(bankRoll)+1))
:D Yes, it's true.
EXPLANATION of the formula:
(How to get it into d'A lab is explained at the bottom... ;))
1: (lastBet+1): This simply tells the program to add 1u to the last bet
2: Math.abs(bankRoll): This gives the absolute value (always a positive value) of the bankroll (if it's -123 the absolute value is +123, if it's 0 or positive the absolute value is the same).
3: Now (Math.abs(bankRoll) < lastBet+1 && bankRoll<1) is actually a question:
"Is the absolute value of the bankroll less than the last bet + 1 AND is the bankroll in fact 0 or negative?"
(The "&&" means AND)
The answer to that is either "true" (=1) or "false" (=0).
If "true", that result (1) is then multiplied by (lastBet+1) - note the "*"-sign between them!
Else the other result (0) is multiplied by lastBet+1 giving 0.
In other words: If the answer to the question is 1 ("true") we get a result = lastBet+1 (because we multiplied by 1), if it's 0 ("false") the result is 0 (because we multiplied by 0)
And this result (lastBet+1 or 0) is then subtracted from the initial lastBet+1 - note the "-"-sign!
This operation gives a result that either = 0 (we subtracted lastBet+1 from lastBet+1) or = lastBet+1 (we subtracted 0).
OK so far? (I guess not ;) but...) Now to the rest.
4: (Math.abs(bankRoll)<lastBet+1&&bankRoll<1) is exactly the same question as above and thus gives the exact same answer (1 or 0).
That answer (1 or 0) is then multiplied by Math.abs(bankRoll)+1 (We have to use the absolute value as the bankroll could in fact be negative)
In other words: If the answer to the question is 1 ("true") we get a result = bankRoll+1 (because we multiplied by 1), if it's 0 ("false") the result is 0 (because we multiplied by 0)
And this result (bankRoll+1 or 0) is then added to the previous result - note the "+"-sign!
This gives a final result that either = bankRoll+1 (we added bankRoll+1 to the previous result 0) or = lastBet+1 (we added 0 to the previous result lastBet+1).
As the results of the "questions" can only be 1 or 0, and both give the SAME answer, the formula can only be solved in two ways:
(lastBet + 1) - (0) + (0) = lastBet + 1, or
(lastBet + 1) - (lastBet + 1) + (bankRoll + 1) = bankRoll + 1
Clear as mud, eh? :D
(I am not a teacher so if there is someone more pedagogic than me, and understands what I'm trying to say ;), pleeease feel free to explain!)
OK. How to use the formula in d'A Lab?
In the "WIN bet" formula section, click the left-most radio-button beside the input-field to make it active.
Copy-and-Paste the above formula into the input-field. Be careful - nothing except the formula!
Click ALL other Radio-buttons beside "..." (indicating no action).
In the "LOST bet" formula section, click the left-most Radio-button beside "Last bet"
Click ALL other Radio-buttons beside "..." (indicating no action).
Thats it!
Set everything else as you like it, load spins and off you go!

not sure this would work...
Hi Rake,
Well, the formula works but the script doesn't :-[
Please read the latest post in the "Lab"-thread.
