Load curve
What a lap is worth depending on its time, for THIS athlete, from a given date. A session is always calculated with the version of the curve in effect on the day it took place.

7- The versions, each “from” its date, with its bounds. The displayed version is in vermilion. New version starts from the displayed version, dated today.
- The start date of the displayed (or new) version.
- The points: a lap time (in seconds, to the tenth) and the load it is worth. The fastest is the minimum of the curve, the slowest its maximum. ✕ removes a point; Add a point adds one.
- Recovery: what a lap slower than the maximum is worth (0 by default). The extra load, optional: at the front, x % more for a lap led; per pass, y more per skater passed (not lapped ones).
- Calculate the cells fills each tenth of a second between two points with a straight line (linear interpolation); Save this version keeps it (a version starting on the same day is replaced, after confirmation); Delete this version.
- The curve, cell by cell.
- The cells, one per tenth of a second: each can be adjusted. The value typed replaces the straight-line one; save to keep it. Calculate the cells erases the adjustments.
The calculation rules
- A lap time is rounded to the nearest tenth (11.25 s counts as 11.3 s).
- Slower than the maximum: the recovery value. Faster than the minimum: the value of the minimum.
- Load of a lap = value of its cell × (1 + x %) if led, + y per pass. A suspect lap is worth 0.
- Load of a session = sum of the loads of its laps, with the version in effect on the day of the session. Before the first version: no load.
