Technically 1.0 since you have to die for it to be less

    Well since the ratio is kills/deaths 0/0 is nonexistent but could be shown as 1 since the numbers are the same in both the numerator and denominator Plus in video games statistics kdr doesn't drop below 1 unless you die, because of this reason

  • I don't think this is how it works, but I've never gone 0 and 0, so I guess I can't refute it. Here's how I would code it(on Java, as it is easy to understand for coding noobs). public double computeKD(int kills, int deaths) { if(deaths > 0) return ((double) kills)/deaths; else return (double) kills; } That would give you kills/deaths or just kills if you have 0 deaths. From what I have observed from personal experience, this is how I understand that it works. Again, I've never gone 0 and 0, so I don't know for sure.

  • Yea in crucible, unless it has changed, people who joined at the end of the game would have 0 kills and 0 deaths and their kd would be 1 I am not that big into coding but I am familiar with the patterns I see on video games. I believe the same thing happens in cod but I haven't played that in a good while so I am not entirely sure on that front. My main knowledge on this comes from math. Ratios, and the number 0.
