The constant term is -160 and it represents the intercept of the line. The linear term is 0.8 * $fide_rating and it represents the slope of the line. The quadratic term is 0.0002 * $fide_rating * $fide_rating and it represents the curvature of the line.<\/p>\n<p>The formula assumes that there is a nonlinear relationship between FIDE ratings and Chess.com ratings, meaning that as FIDE ratings increase, Chess.com ratings increase at a different rate. The quadratic term captures this effect by adding or subtracting some value depending on whether FIDE ratings are above or below a certain point.<\/p>\n<p><strong>It is important to remember that this formula is not exact and it may have some errors or outliers for some players<\/strong>. It also does not account for other factors that may affect ratings such as playing style, time control, rating inflation or deflation, etc. <strong>It is only an approximation based on historical data and it may change over time as new data becomes available.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I hope this explanation makes it more clear how this FIDE to Chess.com Calculator works.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h1>Limitations of the FIDE to Chess.com Converter<\/h1>\n<p><strong>Some possible limitations of this formula\/calculator are:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>It may not be accurate for players who have very high or very low ratings, as they may have fewer data points to compare with or they may have different rating distributions than the average player.<\/li>\n<li>It may not reflect the current rating trends or changes, as it is based on historical data that may become outdated or obsolete over time.<\/li>\n<li>It may not account for the differences in playing conditions, such as time control, opponent strength, rating system, etc., that may affect the performance and rating of players on different platforms.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FIDE to Chess.com Rating Converter Ever wondered what your Chess.com rating is (even though you never played on Chess.com before)?
