At the dealer site in the Input File section, there is listed a score function that is supposed to be: score(vulnerability, contract, tricks).

It mentions that the contract should be in the form "x4H" with the "x" necessary, but there is no mention of the correct syntax for the vulnerability. I have tried "v", "n", "nv", "1" and "0" (along with removing the "x") and get a syntax error every time.

Does anyone know the correct syntax? Or, perhaps whether this function is not available in mdealer (as opposed to dealer)?

Thanks.

vul and nv work for me. Don't use any quotes.

[TimG]

sm = (NV, x4H, tm) produces "unknown variable"
sm = (nv, x4H, tm) produces "syntax error"

Replacing "tm" with 10 produces the same messages.

The script runs fine when this line is commented out.

I hope this isn't an insult, but did you leave out the function name?

sm = score(nv, x4H, tm)

DOH!

Not insulted. But, embarrassed. Thanks.
