What is the mini-language?

The mini-language is the language you can use in the text editor of the WAG Judge application: between the symbols keyboard and the score slip.



This is the place where you insert the symbols that will be displayed in the score slip. To add special features to the exercise that influence the difficulty score, you can use the mini-language which I will explain here:

To create a connection
Type a space between two elements that are not in the same connection.



  becomes: 



To indicate a fall
Falls alter the DV because a connection value is not awarded in case there was a fall in the connection. To indicate that there was a fall in the element (or its landing), type the letter F immediately after the element that has the fall.


becomes:




To indicate an invalid element
Sometimes a gymnast performs an element, but receives no difficulty value for it. For example when a salto is not landed on the feet. Of course you want to see the symbol of the element, but you don't want it to be taken into account in the evaluation. In that case, type the letter x immediately afer the element.



 
becomes:


To indicate an invalid element with a fall
If the element has a fall and it is not valid for DV, type the letters xF immediately after the element.


 becomes:


To devaluate the DV
When for technical reasons the elements DV must be lowered by one, than you must type the minus sign - after the element.


 becomes:


To devaluate an element to a lower element in the code
To devaulate the complete element (for example due to an incomplete pirouette), type the less-than < character after the element.



 becomes:
