Bowlers Aide

Bowlers Aide: A Bowlers Application Designed to Compute your Current Average and Project the Impact a Series Score will have on your Current Average.

Have you ever wanted to know how much your average could go up or down before you ever throw your first ball? The Bowlers Aide is specifically designed to do just this.

How it works:

Enter the number of pins youve bowled for the year into the field "Enter Current Total Pins". Next, enter the number of games youve bowled for the year into the field "Enter Games Bowled". To compute your current average and to see what it would take to raise or lower your average press the "What would it take to raise/lower avg." button. This populates the tables under this button. The values in these tables show series scores and what affect a score above (right table) or below (left table) would have on your average. After this information is supplied you can then compute a new average by supplying the score youve just bowled. Enter this score into the field "Enter Current Series Score" and press "Whats your new average?" You will be presented with a screen showing your new average (note: this new average assumes youve bowled 3 games). You then have the options to "Forward" your new average, this simply means your new total pins and weeks bowled are incremented appropriately (again, this assumes your series is calculated on bowling 3 games) and the tables are automatically updated with new values showing what it would take to raise/lower your average including the series you just bowled. Finally, the values entered in each of the fields are stored so that the next time you use the Bowlers Aide your values youve been working with automatically be filled in.
