Re: [EM] Notes on a few Later-no-harm methods
Hello Andy,
these are my free 2 booklets on binomial stv, of about 1500 words and
3500 words. They are versions of the hand count; short approximations.

50,000 words is a lot to parse through just to understand the

Hello Andy,
these are my free 2 booklets and one book on binomial stv, varying
from about 1500 words to 50,000 words. Tho only part two of the
book, describes the (almost) complete working.

Hi Richard,
I, too, have had a hard time understanding exactly what are the
mechanics of Binomial STV. I have read your full posts, and I
think it would clear it up for me if you would indeed give a
"shut up and calculate" worked example of the type that Kristofer
has sent. Please, without the philosophy and motivation for the
method interspersed, just walk through the calculation of winners
for Binomial STV the same way a computer program would.

Thank you, Kristofer,
I refer you to the post as a whole, not just the first couple
of lines,
for my answer.
It's not just a matter of "shut up and calculate" to quote a
famous
grouse of hapless quantum theory students.
(You make me suspect you are an instructor. However, I
appreciate your
consideration and competance.)
Regards,
Richard Lung.

Binomial STV is later no harm, unlike Borda count, because
uses keep
values , equivalent to Gregory method, for both election
and exclusion
counts.
I would like to check that for myself. That's why I've
asked (three
times) if you could give me the concrete keep and exclude
values, and
the winners, for particular example elections involving
truncation.
Could you please do that?

Just for the list's information: I didn't see Andy's reply. If he
replied to the list, something may be off with the list configuration.
I seem to recall someone else also saying they had been missing posts
from here.

Yes, Andy just replied to me, apparently.
And I got a message from new member doug, who got my email, but could
not get on the list:
