Dear competitors,


I would like to clarify a point regarding the data interface with our 
benchmarking system:

the unit of measurement of the coordinates is *meters*
the format is a Double.
In the case of the socket version you should specify the number as a 
string, internally we use the java function parseDouble of Double (see 
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/1.4.2/docs/api/java/lang/Double.html#parseDouble(java.lang.String) 
).

This means that possible values are:

3, 3.28 or even -.34e-22


best regards,



Dario Salvi
