Sig figs in specificity and sensitivity percentages
I see others here talking about, and posting, their specificity and sensitivity percentages to two decimal places. My ratings are rounded to the nearest whole number. No decimal places. Why is that?

Problem is resolving itself
Half way fixed. I just clicked on a "blank" calibration movie, and now I have 2 places after the decimal in my Specificity. Evidently, this occurred at the point where my score would have rounded to 100%.
I expect that shorly, the Sensitivity will update, too.VM wrote: Calibration Movies Answered Correctly 393

Hi stevems,
As soon as your Sensitivity updates to two decimal points, you can have fun trying to bring them up. One must need a certain amount of movies to get the two decimal update, don't you think? After 30 or 40 good movies you should see your percentages change, hopefully upward.
It takes around 60 or 70 movies now for my last decimal point to move up one place, that is if I make the right choices on the movies.
Thanks,

Maybe you have to make a mistake for your percentage to get decimal points? I'm still stuck with none; haven't make a mistake for a while. Or maybe I'll see them when I get through a few more calibration movies. Right now, my percentages should be around 99.4% or so, depending on the exact split (I've made one of each kind of mistake).

It will be interesting to see what happens. Decimal points showed up for me at the exact point when the value would have rounded up to 100%.
I predict your first value with decimal points will be exactly 99.50% in one of your ratings. Shortly thereafter, the other one will go to the same value.
