Even Bracket Numbers

Round Robin scheduling: Even number of teams. Let N = number of teams in the tournament. There will be N -1 rounds (each team will play N-1 games). Since each team will play every other team once, no team will be idle during any of the rounds. Let us schedule a round-robin tournament for 8 teams numbered from 1 to 8. Any number that is divisible by 2 is even number. Java If statement checks whether the remainder of the current array element divided by 2 is exactly equal to 0 or not. If the condition is True, Even number and the compiler increment evenCount. If the condition is False, Odd number. The numbers are assigned in the order of citation. If a piece of work is cited more than once, the same citation number must be used. This number is commonly enclosed in round brackets (1), but it can also be written inside square brackets 1, as a superscript 1, or as a combination of brackets.

In the seventh edition of the Publication Manual, we standardized the way to present descriptive information in references. This blog post explains how to use parentheses and square brackets in APA Style references.

Parentheses

APA Style uses parentheses in references to present supporting information important for a work’s identification and retrieval. Examples of information presented in parentheses in references include the following:

• edition information for books
• editor and/or translator names for authored books
• volume numbers for books when the book does not have a separate volume title
• page numbers for edited book chapters
• season and episode information for TV show episodes
• version numbers for data sets and software

Information in parentheses appears either on the work itself or on closely related material (e.g., in the database record for the work). The information is presented in parentheses because it is not a part of the actual title of the work. Do not italicize parenthetical information, even if the title of the work is italicized.

The following example report reference contains a parenthetical report number:

National Institute of Mental Health. (2018). Eating disorders: About more than food (NIH Publication No. TR 17-4901). U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, National Institutes of Health. https://www.nimh.nih.gov/health/publications/eating-disorders/eatingdisorders_148810.pdf

• Parenthetical citation: (National Institute of Mental Health, 2018)
• Narrative citation: National Institute of Mental Health (2018)

Square brackets

APA Style uses square brackets to describe works. The descriptions serve various purposes, including the following:

• identifying the context in which a work was published or presented (e.g., dissertations and theses, conference presentations)
• identifying when a source is outside the typical peer-reviewed literature (e.g., fact sheets, brochures, PowerPoint slides, artwork, social media posts, YouTube videos)
• indicating that the source may not consist of text on a page (e.g., films, data sets, computer software, and mobile apps)
• providing translations of titles for references that are in a different language than that of the paper (e.g., books in a different language; see also Section 9.38).

Square brackets indicate that the writer has provided the information and that it may not appear on the actual work. You can create your own wording for the bracketed description (see Section 9.21). Do not italicize bracketed information, even if the title of the work is italicized.

The following example YouTube video reference contains a bracketed description of form (i.e., video).

American Psychological Association. (2019, August 8). Introducing the 7th ed. APA Style Publication Manual [Video]. YouTube. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H5JWKbrHOAE

• Parenthetical citation: (American Psychological Association, 2019)
• Narrative citation: American Psychological Association (2019)

Choosing parentheses or brackets

In general, to determine whether to use parentheses or brackets in a reference, look at the template and reference example in the Publication Manual for the type of work you want to cite. When both parentheses and brackets are present, place the parenthetical information first and the bracketed description second.

The following dissertation example reference contains both parentheses and brackets (corresponding to the publication number in parentheses and the description of the context of the work in brackets).

Philips, L. B. (2020). The adult learner’s story: An exploratory narrative of experiencing an introductory English composition classroom (Publication No. 27547186) [Doctoral dissertation, The George Washington University]. PQDT Open. https://pqdtopen.proquest.com/doc/2316856768.html?FMT=AI

Even Bracket Numbers Worksheet

The Double Elimination brackets above are free to print. The two sections above are broken up between 'Blind Draw' and 'Seeded'. We also have printable Single Elimination Brackets and Triple Elimination Brackets available.

If you are not familiar with running double elimination tournaments, the above illustration and the comments below should help guide you through setting up and running your tournament. The bracket above is a 16 Team 'Seeded' double elimination bracket. The same idea is used for all brackets, not matter what the number of participants are.

A: The letter 'A' points to the 'Seeds' of the tournament, if you have pre-ranked your participants based on strength or a season record you would put each team's name on the corresponding line. If you are printing a blind draw bracket these numbers will not appear on the bracket, but the rest of the bracket will be exactly the same.

B: The letter 'B' points to the order in which the games are to be played. Simply start by playing the game labeled (1) and continue until all games are completed.

C: The letter 'C' points to the position where the loser of each game would move to. These are labeled L1, L2, L3 ect.. All you have to do is look at the Winner's Bracket to see what game number was played, and the loser of that game would drop down to the corresponding location in the losers bracket.

D: The letter 'D' represents the Championship game. Game 14 in the above illustration is the Championship between the Winner of the Winner's Bracket(Zero Losses) and the Winner of the Loser's bracket(1 Loss). If the team from the Winner's Bracket wins then they are the champions. If the team from the Loser's Bracket wins, then game 15(dotted lines) in the above illustration would be played. Whoever wins that game would then be the champions. We have also created a cool little tool that will calculate the total Number of Games in a Tournament.
