===Voting===
Each voter has 100 points to distribute among the candidates according to his preferences.
Line 26 ⟶ 27:
3) Convert the votes into a range form, assigning 0 points to the candidates with the lowest score and normalizing the remaining candidates, using the following formula:
 
M = candidatehighest withscore among the highestcandidates scorein the vote, before normalization.
 
v0 = current value of candidate C, to be normalized.
Line 43 ⟶ 44:
5) If you want to have more winners, then remove the single-winner from all original votes, repeating the whole procedure from point 1.
 
The value W of each original vote ischanges reduced by the points assignedaccording to the removedfollowing candidate.formula:
 
M = highest score among the candidates in the vote.
 
e = candidate's score eliminated.
 
W0 = previous value of W
 
W1 = new value of W
 
<math>
\begin{equation}
W1=W0+100\left( 1-\frac{e}{M}\right)
\end{equation}</math>
 
By repeating this process several times, you can get as many winners as you like, which will be those removed in point 5.
 
6) If you want to know the % of victory of the winning candidates then, in each original vote, you must remove all the candidates who haven’t won, and normalize theeach vote with the following formula used in point 3 (with W=100 fixed). The sum of points for each candidate will indicate the % of victory.:
 
S = sum of the points left in the vote.
 
v0 = current value of candidate C, to be normalized.
 
v1 = value of candidate C, after normalization.
 
<math>
\begin{equation}
v1=\frac{v0}{S} \cdot 100
\end{equation}</math>
 
The sum of points for each candidate will indicate the % of victory.
 
===Head-to-head===
Line 86 ⟶ 113:
==Criteria==
 
Criteria met by DSV (single-winner):
 
*[[Majority criterion]]
Line 100 ⟶ 127:
*[[Pareto criterion]]
 
Criteria not met by DSV (single-winner):
 
*[[Participation criterion]]
*[[Consistency criterion]]
*[[Later-no-harm criterion]]
*[[Later-no-help criterion]]
*[[Favorite betrayal criterion]]
 
The first two unmet criteria not met are derived mainly from the fact that DSV wants to ensure the victory of the candidate who wins all the head-to-head (when it exists).
 
The last 3two unmet criteria can instead generate tactical votes, described below.
