How the calculation works

Current shooting percentage − previous shooting percentage. Both percentages must be 0–100. This is a percentage-point change, not a relative percentage increase; a negative result is a decrease. This quantity displays up to two decimal places where applicable. Durations round to the nearest second; nonzero subsecond durations are labelled. Changing unit labels does not convert entered quantities.

Example

Worked example: Previous Shooting % = 40; Current Shooting % = 55. Result: 15 percentage points.

Practical tip

Keep the basketball shooting inputs on one clearly defined measurement, scoring or counting basis.

Frequently asked questions

What does Basketball Shooting Improvement assume?

Both percentages must be 0–100. This is a percentage-point change, not a relative percentage increase; a negative result is a decrease.

Are results a recommendation or live sports record?

No. This calculates the stated model from entered values. It does not fetch results, decide a safe training programme or apply unstated competition rules.

How are units, counts and rounding handled?

Actual entity counts must be whole. Selected units label matching inputs and outputs without converting entered quantities. Durations round to the nearest second; percentages to two decimals; stated averages use their documented precision. Very small non-zero values are labelled instead of being shown as zero.
