How are the points calculated?

The points for each event are calculated using the following formula:
Points = { [Total Points / SQRT(Number of Team members)) / (log(Rank)+1)} * (Percentile ^ 4)

where,

Total points = maximum points assigned to each competition (mentioned in the table above)

SQRT (Number of team members) = The total points are divided by the square root of the number of team members in each team.

Rank = Your rank on the private leaderboard.

Percentile = Gives the relative ranking of the participant with the total number of people participated in the competition.

Please note, in case of individual participation the SQRT (number of team members) = 1
