Solutions to "Just KNIME It!" Challenge 29 - Season 2

Resources Just KNIME It!

Hi Everyone :slight_smile:

This week I have used a recursive loop to loop through the different rounds of the tournament rather than using a Dendogram.

Inside the loop, the players are randomly paired together and then the score is used to determine which of the players wins. In the case where the number of players is an odd number, if a player hasn’t been paired with anyone, they automatically go through to the next round. The overall winner is always the player with the highest score in the table.

The recursive loop ends when there is only one row left in the table (the last game has been played).

Edit:

I have just updated the solution to add a Sunburst Chart at the end of workflow. This Sunburst Chart shows the rounds of the competition, moving inwards towards the centre of the circle where the final winner of the tournament is shown:

This could be improved by generating the required table for the chart inside the recursive loop.

Here is a link to my solution on the hub:

Thanks again @aworker for your guidance on this challenge :slight_smile:
