If you've ever tried to get your head around how the World Rugby Rankings work, this might help.
Based on this detailed explanation on the World Rugby website, the following program emulates the method used for calculating rating points exchange; the basis of the official ranking system.
The same algorithm is used for building pick & go's ranking history and Super Rugby rankings.


Effective 01/07/2026:  World Rugby has removed the 3 point handicap applied to the host nation's rankings.
Where a match is played (home, away, or neutral venue) now has no relevance on the rating points exchanged.
