README

PHP library to calculate World Athletics (IAAF) scoring points of athletics and WA (IAAF) scoring points for combined events. And some other evaluations of track and field results.

IAAF is rolling a rebrand to WA, but we currently have no plans to rename the package or any of classes.

The WA scoring tables that we reproduce are these ones: https://www.worldathletics.org/about-iaaf/documents/technical-information#collapsescoring-tables

This package is used for the stats system of Latvian Athletics Association.
