Line 363:
This reduces the amount of space required to store and demonstrate all of the relevant information for calculating the result of the voting method.
It may help to put the % of the votes a candidate got in the pairwise matchup. So, for example:
{| class="wikitable"
|+
!
!A
!B
|-
|A
| ---
|'''56%'''
|-
|B
|'''44%'''
| ---
|}
When looking at two candidates, a quick way to figure out the number of votes for the first candidate>second candidate and vice versa is to first locate the cell for "first candidate>second candidate", count the minimum number of cells diagonally one must go to be adjacent to the middle dividing line of the matrix (where there is a --- cell), and then going one cell further diagonally (meaning you'll be starting from the closest cell on the opposite side of that dividing line), go that number of cells further diagonally to reach the other cell. For example:
{| class="wikitable"
| |||
